Build your skills and qualifications in the electrician trade while working toward your Interprovincial Red Seal designation. Electricians install, alter, repair and maintain electrical and electronic systems in residential, commercial and industrial operations. They ensure that all electrical connections are safe and meet code requirements. NIC offers all four levels of apprenticeship technical training, following criteria set by SkilledTradesBC.

Admission Requirements


1. Registered as an apprentice with SkilledTradesBC

2. Must be working for an employer with at least one qualified journeyperson. 

Not registered as an apprentice?

Ask your employer to register you as an apprentice with SkilledTradesBC. It’s free, simple, and can be completed online or printed and mailed to the SkilledTradesBC Head Office. 

NOTE:  If you have previously applied to our Apprenticeship Program within the last year and now want to register for subsequent levels, please complete the Apprentice Training Registration Form and email it to forms@nic.bc.ca

If it has been more than a year since you have first applied to NIC’s Apprenticeship Program, please submit a new application.
