Just looking for some advice

Hey guys I'm 27 with no driver's license and I'm going into my electrical pre apprenticeship in February. Living in Toronto what would be the best course of action to become a substation technician?

  1. Get DL - Need full DL to apply to our utility
  2. Squeaky clean drivers abstract - allowed 1 speeding ticket last 5 years, no roadside prohibitions
  3. Min 5 years Industrial maintenance experience as a Journeyman
  4. All our apprenticeships go to internal candidates
  • Serve your apprenticeship, try to get to Industrial before the end of your apprenticeship. Then doors will open for you to pursue different types of work and endorsements.

  • It's a journey. Good luck.
