How you’ll contribute to the team:
As an apprentice, you will be enrolled in and participate in Howe’s state-registered apprenticeship program, T.E.K. (Technology, Experience, and Knowledge). Under the direction of the Foreman, you will assist in the installation and fabrication of sheet metal ducts, spiral ducts, roof top units, and other commercial HVAC equipment and projects according to plans. Each day and every job-site may be different, as you navigate installing auxiliary components to heating-cooling equipment such as registers, air ducts, blowers, dampers, and flues. You will also participate in a monthly Howe-facilitated classroom training where will learn how to read and understand blueprints, troubleshoot and resolve issues, and carry out additional assignments as directed. Apprentices also will learn the importance of maintaining their tools, repairing equipment, and keeping their work areas neat, clean, and free of debris.
What you’ll bring to the table:
To be successful in Howe’s T.E.K. apprenticeship, you’ll need to be mechanically inclined and able to follow directions closely. Good communication skills are key, as well as the ability to work unsupervised, and maintain a professional appearance always. Apprentices are also expected to drive to and from job sites as necessary so reliable transportation is a must.
How you’ll qualify:
Howe’s T.E.K. apprenticeship provides all the on-the-job and classroom training necessary to qualify you to become a licensed Sheet Metal Journeyman. No prior construction experience is required, but it is helpful.
