Learning a skilled trade puts a person in the enviable position of having a career that cannot be outsourced overseas. When the need arises, someone with skill and knowledge is needed within hours. This applies directly to the field of electronics and electrical systems.

In twelve 90-hour class and lab modules, students can acquire the knowledge to launch them into a career in the electrical industry. Like many large industries, there are many capacities to work within, and this core education prepares the graduate to apprentice in two of the most popular: entry-level electrician and entry-level systems technician.

When you train at our Queens campus, you will gain the necessary knowledge and skills to become competent at wiring for high-voltage applications. In the low-voltage modules, you will learn how to install and repair the various systems that power the burgeoning smart-house industry.
