PHCC eLearning

Plumbing & HVACR Apprentice eLearning

Image

The PHCC of California Educational Foundation offers plumbing apprentice eLearning courses for apprentices who need a non-traditional method of receiving their apprenticeship-related instruction.

This program is recognized by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment & Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship, as a reasonable option for apprentice training.

Each course is the equivalent of one year of classroom instruction. On-the-job training must be coordinated with a participating employer.

The eLearning courses offer enhanced course quality and give students fast feedback on their performance.

Since there is no set schedule, apprentices pursuing eLearning must be self-disciplined and self-motivated to maintain steady progress.

When needed, most apprentices ask their employer or a colleague for assistance. Mentoring is also available through select local PHCC Chapters.
