Questions
How much does electrician school cost?
Public schools with electrical programs charge a median $4,595 a year in in-state tuition; for-profit schools charge a median $20,900 in program tuition.1
Does electrician school count toward a license?
It helps, but it rarely replaces work hours. States that license electricians count supervised hours on the job, and some give partial credit for school. Check your state's steps.
Trade school or apprenticeship?
Apprentices get paid for their hours and their classes are usually included. School costs tuition but you can start without being hired first.
