iHeartRadio 2019 Apprenticeship
Dear Apprentice,
We would like to take the time to share some valuable information with you in regards to the educational aspect of your Apprenticeship. If you have completed course work that correlates directly with the Apprenticeship curriculum, you may be eligible to receive credit for the course work you have completed during your Apprenticeship or prior to your Apprenticeship.
For example, Energy Management is a core class for 4th Year Apprentices. If you have taken and completed the aforementioned class at Los Angeles Trade Technical College or at a different institution, you may be eligible to receive credit for the course; therefore, eliminating the need to retake the class again during your tenure as an Apprentice.
This dynamic can positively impact your Apprenticeship as it can present you with the opportunity to broaden your education and training by taking more sophisticated and advanced courses designed to uplift and strengthen your foundation as an Apprentice Stationary Engineer. If this message pertains to you and you have completed course work correlating with your Apprenticeship curriculum, please follow instructions in order to successfully get this process underway.
You will be required to complete the following:
- Complete the 2 step e-admission registrations process where you receive an alphanumeric code, followed by your official LATTC Student Identification #.
- If you have completed a course(s) at Los Angeles Trade Technical College, you will be required to obtain your unofficial transcripts from the LATTC and submit them to the JATC for our review.
- If you have completed a course(s) at another institution or college/university, please obtain your official transcripts and submit them to the JATC for our review.
*Disclosure: Upon receipt of all documentation, the final approval will be determined upon an extensive review of student transcripts and records by LATTC personnel. You will be notified of the final decision by Local 501 staff.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at (213) 385-2889 ext. #115 or #116, or at JATC-LAinfo@local501.org and we will assist you in any which way we can.
