National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee
The NJATC was created over 58 years ago and has developed into what perhaps is the largest apprenticeship and training program of its kind.

This joint program between the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) has clearly demonstrated the most cost effective way to train qualified craft workers.
