Sprinkler Fitter
Apprentice Program
Contact: Charles Ketner
Phone (800) 638-0592
www.sprinklerfitters669.org

Apprentices complete a five-year program with on-the-job training and a 19-course correspondence through a nationally recognized university.

Safety is first and foremost; therefore
apprentices are trained in the care and
proper use of tools and equipment. These will range from pipe wrenches and pipe threading machines to welding equipment and man lifts.

Members upgrade each year at special
training seminars on new fire protection technology, regulations, applications, and OSHA safety requirements.

An apprentice is paid at a percentage of the journeyman wage. The sprinkler fitter wage rate is negotiated state by state, based on the economic conditions of the state. All apprentices participate in a health and welfare program that provides medical
coverage and life insurance. In addition, apprentices start building a pension once they meet requirements to begin participation.
