A Strong Career Transition for Military Veterans

The IBEW Local 743 / NECA Electrical Training Alliance is committed to developing apprentices who become dependable, skilled, and safety‑focused team members. Success in our program requires discipline, strong work ethic, adaptability, teamwork, respect for structure, and pride in craftsmanship—qualities that are foundational to military service.

Current and transitioning service members bring invaluable experience to the electrical industry. Veterans are accustomed to working in structured environments, following detailed procedures, problem‑solving under pressure, and collaborating as part of a team to achieve mission‑focused results. These strengths translate directly to success within the electrical apprenticeship program and the construction industry as a whole.

For those preparing to transition from military service into civilian life, the electrical trades offer a clear and respected career pathway. An apprenticeship with IBEW Local 743 provides hands‑on training, steady employment, competitive wages, and comprehensive benefits while allowing individuals to continue serving their communities in a meaningful and productive way.

If you—or someone you know—are currently serving or preparing to leave the military and seeking a stable, long‑term career with growth opportunities, we encourage you to contact the IBEW Local 743 / NECA Electrical Training Alliance to learn more about our electrician apprenticeship program and how your military experience can support a successful civilian career.
