What Does It Cost?

The employer is ultimately responsible for the $225 per semester payment. Each semester is 4 months long and the apprentice will be attending 2 class semesters a year. Employers are billed for tuition 2 weeks after the start of each semester. All apprentices must be sponsored by a participating employer. Tuition payments are accepted only from the employer.

Textbooks are usually issued the first night of class. You may pay then, or sign for your book and a bill will be sent to your contractor. Your employer may “payroll-deduct” your book cost from your pay.
