Both Inside Electrical and Technology Services sta Both Inside Electrical and Technology Services start at the Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (JATC). What you build after that is up to you.

Inside Electrical takes five years and leads to journeyman status, with some of the highest earning potential in the trade. Graduates earn more than $108,000 annually, plus over $41,000 in health and retirement benefits. If you want to work on major builds and eventually move into supervision or ownership, this is the track for you.

Technology Services moves faster. In three years, you're certified as a Telecom Journeyperson, working in a field that's growing fast and opens doors into IT and communications work down the line.

Not sure which one's for you? Our team can help you figure it out: https://electricalalliance.org/training/
Inova is building its sixth hospital in Franconia- Inova is building its sixth hospital in Franconia-Springfield, a $2 billion expansion that will bring a new inpatient hospital and expanded emergency care to the region. 

13 Local 26 members working the project for VarcoMac are doing it alongside a relative, five father-son pairs and a set of brothers and a nephew among them.

This is what changing the course for generations looks like.
Before the Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee Before the Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (JATC), Haider Hakky worked as a public health consultant. When he trained to become an electrician, he says the biggest surprise wasn't the physical work: it was how much curiosity matters on the job.

Haider’s advice for new apprentices: ask questions, dig into the answers, and learn from what other trades are thinking too. Building that kind of solidarity with a curious mind, he says, will take you far.

The Washington Building Congress has recognized co The Washington Building Congress has recognized construction excellence in the DC area for 70 years. This year, several Local 26 members and signatory contractors took home 2026 Craftsmanship Awards, including a Hall of Fame win for Brother Michael Breece, his eighth award.

It's proof of what Local 26 has always known: the skill and dedication of our membership are second to none. That reputation is part of why Local 26 saw the largest membership growth in the IBEW in 2025.
