"Going through the ARPEC apprenticeship program was one of the best decisions I ever made. It gave me the skills, knowledge, and confidence to build a successful career in the mechanical trades. Now, as an instructor, I have the privilege of giving back by training the next generation of apprentices."

"I enjoy the camaraderie and the challenges the program presents. It feels good to be working toward something better than what I had before. Now I have a career with a future, and it feels good."

"Be engaged, pay attention and soak up as much knowledge as you can while you’re in the program. Education is something no one can take away from you. Once you have it, it’s yours."

"ARPEC-trained apprentices enhance our job-site efficiency, uphold high standards, and provides a skilled workforce for the future. Their rigorous training ensures they arrive on-site with a strong foundation in mechanical systems, safety protocols, and industry best practices."

"You’ll leave the school with invaluable life and work skills that will keep you employed for the rest of your career. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, jump into situations you’re unfamiliar with or take on a difficult project."
