ABC Plumbing Apprenticeship

The ABC Plumbing Apprenticeship Certificate program is designed for students interested in earning a licensed journeyman's card in the construction field. Requirements for the journeyman's card include 8,000 on-the-job training hours to be completed within a four-year time period. HACC is currently updating a partnership with Associated Builders & Constractors, Incorporated (ABC). Students at HACC will have the opportunity to earn college credits towards a diploma, certificate or degree in plumbing in exchange for the on-the-job training hours needed for a licensed journeyman's card.
To qualilfy for an apprenticeship, students must become a member of ABC. Membership into ABC begins with your local ABC chapter. Interested students should look into the Central Pennsylvania chapter. Each ABC chapter's programs and services are designed to meet the construction industry's needs for their market area.
