IBEW Local 163 JATC Mission

Educating the region’s premier electrical workforce

The mission of the IBEW Local 163 JATC is to provide the electrical construction industry in the Wilkes-Barre area with the most highly trained and skilled workforce possible.

This training includes cultivating the proper attitudes necessary to become a productive and motivated employee for our signatory contractors, as we strive to provide a positive learning environment for our apprentices to prepare them for careers in the electrical field.

The JATC is committed to providing continuing education and upgrade courses for our journeyman wireman, thereby meeting the needs of an ever changing industry.

We are dedicated to building professionals who have the expertise, character and sense of teamwork to bring value to the clients they serve, the union they represent and the contractors who employ them.
