Advising Notes

  • The classes are to be taken in the sequence in which they are given. A student must complete each class and a comprehensive competency exam with a C or higher grade to move on to the next level class. Each course will be offered once per year with odd number courses in the fall semester and even numbered courses in the spring semester. Those requiring a math class prior to entering the program should check the schedule to see if an offset class will be offered for first year students only. Failure to complete the necessary course work or to register in a timely manner for each class will add one full year to the apprentice’s program.
  • All major PLI course requirements must be taken to complete the apprenticeship portion of the curriculum. The Plumbing Independent Technology courses are also available online.
  • It is the students’ responsibility to understand the requirements for their chosen program of study and to examine each course description for details about the prerequisite classes.
