  • Practice using hardware such as anchors, supports, conduits and a lot more.
  • Learn to install cable support structures and prepare pathways for copper and fiber optic cabling.
  • Learn to install, test, and troubleshoot local area network cabling systems and voice/data systems.
  • Study electrical concepts as they relate to equipment like conductors, insulators, and switching devices.
  • Build skills for entry-level residential electrician work.

Our partnership with Johnson Controls provides specialized training in their proprietary technology for students in the electrical program. Qualified EEST graduates can then apply for advanced training at the Johnson Controls Academy at Lincoln Tech’s Columbia, MD campus.
