Here at IEC of Oregon, we know that apprenticeship changes lives.

Apprenticeship is occupational training that combines on-the-job experience with approved employers and classroom instruction, providing you with a steadily increasing income while preparing you to become a licensed journey worker in a trade. It is recognized across the United States as a pathway to a lifelong career, a competitive salary, an education, and advancement within an industry.
