Going PRO Talent Fund Testimonial: Hi-Tech Electric Company

Hi-Tech Electric Company stands as a comprehensive electrical contracting firm, offering a spectrum of services. They specialize in providing quotes and estimates for new electrical construction projects, alongside continuous support for ongoing construction and maintenance needs. What sets Hi-Tech Electric Company apart is their distinctive capacity to undertake projects comparable to those handled by major electrical contracting firms, all the while prioritizing and preserving the strong customer relations that have been integral to significant growth.

Hi-Tech Electric Company participates in a Department of Labor recognized apprenticeship program for the electrical industry. This five-year long program blends on-the-job training with classroom education to further the experience. Apprentices get contractually guaranteed pay raises with the successful completion of each year of the five-year program. Hi-Tech Electric Company takes pride in their commitment to excellence and continuous improvement within the electrical contracting industry. As part of their dedication to fostering a skilled and knowledgeable workforce, Hi-Tech has developed a robust apprenticeship program that offers numerous benefits to both their employees and the industry. The apprenticeship program is designed to cultivate a new generation of highly skilled electricians, ensuring the highest standards of quality and safety in every project they undertake. The company believes in investing in the professional growth of their workforce. The apprenticeship program is cornerstone of their strategy to achieve this objective, and the Going PRO Talent Fund affords them that opportunity.

Hi-Tech Electric Company strategically watches their retirements for field staff and plan accordingly by taking on enough new apprentices to offset their retirements. Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship program, the employee has obtained and maintains a working knowledge of all things electrical. This program offers continuing education for those who have completed the original program allowing for adaptation to changing demand. These skills are repeatable anywhere in the USA and for most of the modern world, the principles of electricity remain the same.

Utilizing apprentice electricians has allowed Hi-Tech Electric Company to increase production and reduced downtime. As the available workforce of journey level electricians continues to decrease, we must offset our workforce with apprentice electricians. Having and maintaining a strong workforce of available apprentice electricians has allowed Hi-Tech Electric Company to remain competitive and staff their projects.

Hi-Tech Electric Company enjoys participating in the Going PRO Talent Fund program. It’s no secret that the training of apprentices comes with an extraordinary cost associated with that training. The electrical industry has been seeing significant shortages in available journeyman electricians. This has left a gap that may companies have been struggling to fill since the early onset of the pandemic in 2020. This apprenticeship program and the Going PRO Talent Fund helps defray some of the costs associated with the training of apprentices, which has in turn allowed Hi-Tech Electric Company to expend additional resources trying to bring on extra apprentices to help offset their retirements.
