Residential Electrical Instructor

Description

Job Responsibilities

• Lead and manage a training crew of 2 to 6 apprentices, in the field with them every day.

• Teach apprentices to wire houses efficiently, building the methods, sequencing, and habits that produce speed without giving up quality.
• Hold a high standard for detail. Check apprentices’ work, correct mistakes on the spot, and make sure every house is wired to plan and to code.
• Teach and reinforce NEC requirements and job-site safety, including NFPA 70E, as part of the daily work.
• Mentor each apprentice. Track progress, assess skills and code knowledge, keep training records, and hold regular one-on-ones to address gaps early.
• Report apprentice progress and program results to training leadership, and work with leadership and field supervisors to keep improving the program.
