Power your career with the Casper College electrical apprenticeship program. Designed for those who want to “earn while they learn,” this program bridges the gap between classroom theory and real-world application. Whether you are a recent high school graduate or a professional looking to switch to a high-demand trade, we provide the structured education required to master the electrical craft. You will explore advanced electrical theory, navigate the National Electrical Code (NEC), and develop the technical skills necessary for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
We offer a long-term certificate program that serves as the educational backbone for your path toward professional licensure.
Casper College is a national leader in “affordable excellence,” consistently ranking as one of the best values for higher education in Wyoming. We are committed to helping you understand the investment you are making in your future by providing transparent cost information and personalized support. While individual costs vary based on residency and course load, many students use a combination of federal grants, the Hathaway Scholarship, and other funding sources to help manage their educational expenses.
We encourage you to use our net price calculator and contact our financial aid office for a customized estimate of your costs and aid eligibility.
Completing your apprenticeship is the first step toward a secure, high-wage career in a field that is essential to every aspect of modern life.
Our curriculum is designed to meet the rigorous educational requirements of the Wyoming Department of Fire Prevention and Electrical Safety. Casper College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.
The Electrical Apprentice certificate is a specialized professional credential. While it is designed to lead directly to the Journeyman exam, the credits earned at Casper College build a strong academic transcript. Students often choose to apply their technical background toward an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) or a Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.S.) in Organizational Leadership to prepare for future roles in project management or business ownership.

Getting Started in Electrical Apprenticeship
At Casper College, we make it easy to start your career in the electrical trades. There are no formal prerequisites to begin our Electrical Apprenticeship classes. While most of our students start their first class after they have secured a job with an electrical contractor, you are welcome to begin your coursework before you are employed. Most students typically coordinate their employment and classes to begin within the same 12-month period.
