Northern Virginia Building Trades Apprenticeships

Building Trades Unions offer apprenticeships, which are opportunities for local residents to enter careers in the skilled trades.  The building trades include many different skilled crafts such as electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, pipefitters, carpenters, sheet metal workers, millwrights, painters, iron workers, laborers, boilermakers, elevator constructors, bricklayers, and more.  These crafts provide free training – both in the classroom and on-the-job – during which apprentices “earn while they learn,” including good wages, family health care, and retirement benefits.
