"I recently enrolled in our local trade school for the online Electrician Apprentice program. This coursework will be a few months long, taking me through expectations regarding electrical work within residential, commercial, and industrial environments. I have already begun reading up on best practices for reading and interpreting electrical, mechanical, and architectural drawings and am learning our state's electrical code specifications."
