MCC Plumbing Apprenticeship Program — AAS Degree & Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate (Evening)

About This Opportunity

MCC's Plumbing Apprenticeship Program is designed to be taken alongside full-time work — the program runs in the evenings specifically so that students can work on plumbing job sites during the day and attend class at night, which is the traditional apprenticeship model. All instructors in MCC's plumbing program are licensed journeyman or master plumbers — real tradespeople teaching real trade skills. The four-year AAS program provides the related technical instruction (RTI) component of a full plumbing apprenticeship. Completing the program and accumulating the required on-the-job training hours puts you on the path to the Omaha Journeyman Plumber License. MCC also offers a shorter Plumbing Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate for students who want to build foundational skills before entering a full apprenticeship program. Plumbing is one of the most durable and recession-resistant trades: pipes exist in every structure ever built, they require maintenance, and they cannot be outsourced. Licensed journeyman plumbers in Omaha earn $25–$45/hr. The program is financial aid eligible. Contact Luke Littleton at 531-MCC-4756 for current program details, start dates, and prerequisites.
