Description
Delaware Tech is proud to offer a State of Delaware Registered Apprenticeship in Welding! Unlike most “earn while you learn” apprenticeships, our innovative Welding Apprenticeship Program will provide participants with all of the classroom training during their very first year. Once the classroom training is complete, our newly skilled welders will be able to obtain gainful “paid” employment from one of many Delaware Welding Apprenticeship Registered Sponsors for their remaining on-the-job training and completion of the apprenticeship.
This “learning first” apprenticeship model has been successfully implemented in other states and is becoming the preferred training model for many of the technical and skilled trade industries. Textbooks, safety glasses, welding helmets, jackets and gloves included.
