What each occupation pays
The program pays you from day one. FDOE reports your pay on day one and your pay at completion (your hourly pay by the time you complete the program) as yearly figures. The hourly rates are the yearly figures divided by 2,080 hours.

| Electrician (Interior) | 8,000 hours | $15.12 | $21.60 |
FDOE doesn’t publish the pay steps in between, so ask the program.
What apprentices earned after completing the program
FDOE's annual report gives what apprentices earned after they completed the program. Each figure is a year of pay, averaged from each apprentice's 4 highest-paid quarters. The figures count only apprentices who were found working in Florida.
| Occupation | 1 year after | 5 years after |
|---|---|---|
| Electrician (Interior) | $60,574 | $44,699 |
These figures are what apprentices earned. They aren't pay rates that the program sets. FDOE reports them for the occupations it has figures for.
How you get in
Ask when you can apply
Each program takes applications on its own schedule. Contact the program to ask when you can apply.
Florida doesn’t publish each program’s rules for getting in, so ask the program what it needs. Before you sign, ask about the full cost, which hours are paid and how the classes work. See the 10 questions
Once you're in
- Length
- 8,000 hours in all.
When you finish
