PLUMBING NCCER

This program offers the combination of plumbing theory and practical application necessary for successful employment as a plumber apprentice, an entry-level plumber that will begin their career under the guidance of a more experienced tradesman. Students in the Plumbing NCCER (National Center for Construction Education and Research) program will develop skills to work efficiently and safely in the plumbing industry. They typically perform many of the same tasks that veteran plumbers do, including installing new plumbing fixtures, unclogging plumbing systems, and repairing pipes. They may handle easier jobs on their own and act as a helper on more complex jobs.

Hands-on training teaches students how to inspect, install, maintain, and repair plumbing systems in commercial and residential settings. Among the skills taught in this program are how to interpret codes, blueprints, sketches, drawings, and schematics. Students will also learn how to install, repair, and maintain pipes, drain systems, water supply systems, plumbing fixtures, gas heating, venting, and appliances.
