Program Selection Policy
The Toledo Electrical Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (TEJATC) encourages all applicants to apply to all available programs. Upon being selected to a specific TEJATC program and accepting to either the Inside, Residential or Installer Technician program, the applicant's name will be removed from all other current selection lists and/or the application will be rescinded from the other TEJATC programs. This policy is necessary to keep continuity in the programs and the financial investment the TEJATC has in educating each apprentice. This policy will take effect August 11th, 2020.

The recruitment, selection, employment, and training of apprentices shall be without discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, or age. The sponsor will take affirmative action to provide equal opportunity in apprenticeship and will operate the apprenticeship program as required under Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, part 30, and the equal employment opportunity regulations of the state of Ohio.
