Questions people actually ask

Which plumbing apprenticeships in Nashville are accepting applications right now?

None of the 3 sponsors on this page has published a window to us yet — every row says "call" rather than guessing. Union JATCs commonly accept applications year-round or monthly; IEC/ABC programs enroll each fall through a member contractor. The alert below fires the moment one publishes.

Union (JATC) or open-shop (IEC/ABC) — what is the difference in Nashville?

0 union JATC tracks and 3 open-shop, chapter and college programs here. Union JATCs (IBEW/NECA, UA) pay on a published schedule with benefits and place you with signatory contractors; IEC/ABC programs are employer-first — a member contractor hires you, then enrolls you. Both are USDOL-registered and both count every hour toward the state license.

What does a first-year plumbing apprentice make in Nashville?

Union schedules typically start period 1 at 45% of journeyman scale. Against the Nashville journeyman-equivalent median of $28.90/hr (BLS OEWS May 2025), that is about $13.00/hr — the local's own schedule governs, and open-shop programs set pay per employer.

What do I need before I apply?

Most sponsors: 18+, a high-school diploma or GED, a passing score on the aptitude test (ETA/NJATC for electrical, UA for plumbing/HVAC), a valid driver's licence, and a drug screen. IEC/ABC programs need a member contractor to hire you first — you do not need an employer before applying to a JATC. Each card lists what that sponsor published.
