Plumbing Apprenticeship
Adult Technical Program Plumbing Apprenticeship Training
These courses are designed to begin to prepare Plumbing apprentices to fulfill the requirements to take the Massachusetts State Journeyman Plumber Examination. In order to apply the course hours towards a student’s educational requirements as outlined in 248 C.M.R., Section 11, they must hold a current Massachusetts Apprentice Plumber's License.
State requirements vary based on the date the student acquired their Apprentice License. The Tier program is for apprentice plumbers who received their apprentice card after September 1, 2008.
