Paid Construction Trade Apprenticeships From ABC Keystone
ABC Keystone runs 11 Pennsylvania-registered apprenticeship programs in construction trades, where you are paid while you learn the work. The trades listed are Carpentry, Construction Craft Laborer, Electrical, Heavy Equipment Operator, HVAC, Masonry, Plumbing, Roofing and Sheet Metal, and an Assembler, Pre-Engineered Buildings program is listed as coming soon.
The program is presented as an alternative to college: you get paid as you complete your training, you have the opportunity to graduate without debt, and you earn a Journeyman's Certificate to enhance your earning potential. You get skill development and extensive training in the trade you choose, with the goal of in-demand skills and a sustainable career. The program is approved by the Office of Apprenticeship and the Federal and Pennsylvania Departments of Labor. Training is described only as conveniently located in Central PA; no classroom or shop address is given.
To ask about starting, the apprenticeship page has an Apprenticeship Contact Form that asks for your name, company or school, phone, email, and how staff can help you. That form is a way to reach staff with questions, not an application. Buttons labeled Get Started and Start Your Career Today! lead to an apprenticeship enrollment page at abckeystone.org/apprenticeship/apprenticeship-enrollment/, and each trade has its own Learn More page.
For questions, ABC Keystone's general number is (717) 653-8106. It is listed for the Manheim office at 135 Shellyland Road, Manheim, PA 17545 and for the Howard office at 898 N Eagle Valley Road, Howard, PA 16841, both open Mon-Fri 8am to 5pm. A third address, 800 North Third St., Suite 407, Harrisburg, PA 17102, is the ABC PA Legislative Office and is by appointment. These are ABC Keystone offices; the pages do not say training happens at any of them.
The pages give few other details. They do not say who qualifies, whether you need to be hired by a contractor first, what the training costs, how long each program lasts, or when classes start. Ask when you call.
