Sheet Metal Worker Apprenticeship SMART
About Our Training
On-the-job training and paid classroom learning make our apprenticeship programs the ideal way to learn a trade while earning a salary. SMW Local 80 apprentices earn the same hourly wage while they are in school as they would if they were on the job; hence the term "earn while you learn". While on the job, apprentices work side-by-side with skilled Sheet Metal Worker Journeypersons while employed by one of our 80+ SMACNA contractors. This enables them to gain the practical experience and knowledge necessary to themselves become a Sheet Metal Worker Journeyperson.
