DIRECTIONS TO TRAINING SITE

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE INFORMATION SESSION?

We will verify the information you provide at the information session. After we verify your information:

  • A "Letter of Eligibility" will be mailed to you. You should leave a copy of the "Letter of Eligibility" when you apply with contractors. If a contractor would like to hire you, they should fill out the back of the "Letter of Eligibility" and fax it to the training site. We will then contact you to schedule you to come to the training site for an Orientation to sign your contract with the State of Wisconsin Bureau of Apprenticeship.  You CANNOT be considered an apprentice until after you sign a contract with the State of Wisconsin Bureau of Apprenticeship.

    A list of contractors** will accompany the "Letter of Eligibility."

  • You will be placed on the list to be called for jobs as they become available.

The "Letter of Eligibility" is good for ONE year.
