October 12, 2007, Newsletter Issue #51: Training To Become A Plumber

Tip of the Week


You’ll need some form of training to become a plumber if you want to enter the profession. If you intend to work as a residential plumber, you can learn the craft through community colleges, trade schools, and on the job training. If you’re interested in work as a commercial plumber, your main mode of entry is likely through an apprenticeship. Apprenticeships last four to five years in length and you’ll learn about the plumbing craft through job training. There are no national requirements for licensing once you’ve completed the training to become a plumber. However, many areas require you to acquire some form of licensing to work as a plumber.
