Ironworkers Apprenticeship
MHCC partners with union ironworkers and employers to sponsor a four-year apprenticeship program. Training occurs in the classroom and on the jobsite. Ironworker apprentices attend a four-week daytime training session each year of their apprenticeship. Classes are often held during the winter months. Apprentices start at 65% of journey-level wage. Pay rates increase about every six months as an apprentice's work skills expand!
You future as an Ironworker
Ironworkers build the structural framework for high-rise buildings, bridges, power plants, and towers. They also place reinforcing steel in concrete forms for roadways, foundations, and structures. Ironworkers also erect aluminum fascia on high-rise window walls. So agility and comfort working off the ground are a must!
Want to learn more about how you can become an ironworker? We’re happy to help. Please email questions to MHCC Training Coordinator Dawn Loomis or email MHCC Apprenticeship Advisor and Outreach Specialist Howard Mitchell.
