Before you choose a electrician school in Kentucky
Electrician licensing is set state by state and usually requires documented apprenticeship hours in addition to classroom study. A school program can shorten the path but rarely replaces the hours requirement.
- Do your classroom hours count toward my state's licensing requirement?
- Is there a pre-apprenticeship or union/non-union placement path?
- How current is the code book you teach from?
