One job will look like it was done by a professional and the other like it was done by a plumber.
Anyway, the point I'm trying to make is that if you're going to make a move down here do some research into the companies you are considering working for before you sign on.
Many of the independent contractors that sponsor apprenticeships are not members of any group, including the NJECA.
It is a Labor Department run program not run by any assn or any union group, and the reason we have these programs is to have standard trainning for the apprentice, both on the job and in class.
Anyone that needs additional information on the apprentices programs in new jersey, please
PM
These programs are ideal for the small one to three man shops, we sponsored many over the years, it gives your men the class and on the job trainning they need to become qualifiied employees
