Converse College – Apprenticeship Program:
In the past we insisted that our employees go to an outsourced apprenticeship program to receive their training. This benefit has been paid 100% by the company, but at Converse Electric we challenged ourselves to raise the bar even higher, so we moved the apprenticeship program in house.
So, what does that mean for you…?
It means you will be trained in a dedicated training room and lab space at Converse Electric for Converse Electric apprentices only. You will be mentored by your Converse Electric colleagues, foreman, project managers, estimators, engineer and even our owner!
Our teachers are trained in and follow the NCCER curriculum, which is widely used throughout the country by merit shop contractors and is adopted by the state of Ohio. After passing the program and completing your OJT, you will become a certified journeyman in Ohio. This is only the beginning of your career at Converse Electric!
