TRIO Career Pathway

There is a major shortage of skilled labor in the United States. Electricians are one of the many trades that are in high demand and industry forecasts predict this trend will continue into the foreseeable future. TRIO Electric, an electrical design, construction and service firm based in Houston, Texas is trying to combat the issue. In 2013, TRIO developed an in-house Department of Labor (DOL) approved 4-year electrical apprenticeship program called the TRIO Apprenticeship Program (TAP). The program targets post high-school graduates who are looking for a career in the construction field. Since inception, more than 500 employees have taken advantage of TAP.

The students’ only cost is a fee to obtain a state electrical apprenticeship license. All other costs are funded by the partnership.
