Electrical & Plumbing Apprentice Tutor

Job Overview

Registered apprenticeship is an industry-driven, high‑quality career pathway where employers can develop and prepare their future workforce; and individuals can obtain paid work experience, classroom instruction, and a portable nationally recognized credential.

The Vermont Department of Labor Registered Apprenticeship Program for Electrical and Plumbing assists in setting up structured, yet flexible training programs designed to meet the specific needs of Vermont employers through on-the-job learning and related instruction. Registered Apprenticeships can be sponsored by employers, employer associations, colleges, or labor management groups that can hire and train in a working situation.

Apprentices are required to complete 144 hours of classroom instruction for each year of their apprenticeship. The instruction program jointly established by the Vermont Department of Labor (VDOL) and Vermont State University (VTSU) delivers the required instruction in 48 3‑hour sessions. Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes, arrive on time, stay for the full 3 hours, be prepared to learn, and have assignments completed.

Apprenticeship tutors are needed to assist outside of the traditional classroom hours. Tutoring needs may vary depending on course/level and course syllabus requirements. Tutoring will be done remotely via Zoom.
