* I have nozzled on many shotcrete jobs ranging from drainage ditches, structural walls, pools, spas, ponds, parking structures, and even some jobs I am not at liberty to discuss.

*I work well under pressure, in this line of work time is of the essence and can make or break a job.

*I am detail oriented and always start with a plan and a goal to complete the job safe and efficiently.

*I'm a firm believer that time is money and "on time" is late.

*I take pride in what I do.

The Electrician Training Program provides students with the knowledge, skills, and hands-on training that they need to begin a rewarding career as an electrician. The program teaches students how to install, maintain, and repair electrical systems in residential and commercial applications.

The great thing about the program is that it can be completed, and students can earn their diploma in as few as 10 months, placing them on the fast track to becoming entry-level electrician technicians.

Students are taught electrical wiring by working on skill-building stations in on-site labs at UEI College. Upon graduation from the program, students should be able to install wiring in new buildings and maintain and repair existing electrical systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

The program is hybrid, meaning it combines both online learning and in-classroom and lab training, making it easier than ever before for students to graduate from the program.

The program is designed to provide students with a foundation for installing, maintaining, and repairing electrical systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

The program starts out by introducing students to basic safety precautions that electricians must take in construction and work sites. The program then proceeds to instruct students on electrical theory, covering the fundamentals of energy, transformers, capacitors, and power generation.

The program also covers flexible conduits and flexible cable assemblies, and NEC code requirements. Furthermore, the electrician course covers residential and commercial applications, introducing students to load calculations, lighting outlets, grounding, bonding, and three-phase electrical distribution systems.

The classes also include instruction on low voltage applications, motors, programmable logic controllers, and the fundamentals of solar panels.

If a career as an electrician sounds interesting to you, consider enrolling in UEI’s Electrician Technician Trade School. Our program can be completed, and you can graduate in as few as 10 months, placing you on the fast track to becoming an entry-level electrician. Contact us, and one of our admissions team members will reach out to you and provide you with everything you need to know on how to enroll in the program.

Graduates of the Electrician Technician Program enter the candidate pool equipped with the knowledge, skills, and hands-on training that employers are looking for when seeking to hire electrician technicians.

Our path to success includes a self-paced online incubator, access to affordable capital with Kiva loans, and an intensive accelerator program in partnership with GoDaddy. Our Business and Community Center and ignite sparked by BBB coworking spaces provide modern meeting destinations for collaboration and executive events.

We are committed to recognizing future leaders with merit-writing high school student scholarships awarded for ethical actions in the community. Additionally, we award grants to non-profit organizations dedicated to their respective ecosystems.

An ethical marketplace where buyers and sellers trust each other.

BBB’s mission is to be the leader in advancing marketplace trust. We do this by:

• Setting standards for marketplace trust
• Encouraging and supporting best practices by engaging with and educating consumers and businesses

BBB sees trust as a function of two primary factors – integrity and performance. Integrity includes respect, ethics, intent, and working toward a diverse, inclusive and equitable marketplace. Performance speaks to a business’s track record of delivering results in accordance with BBB standards and/or addressing customer concerns in a timely, satisfactory manner.

After successfully running Peerless Plumbing Company and Nudrain Phoenix for over 20 years, Randy Rushing decided to retire and pass the torch to his son, Christian.  In 2019, Christian and his wife Lindsey took over all operations of Peerless Plumbing Company and Nudrain Phoenix.  Having specialized in NuDrain by NuFlow sewer lining for over 10 years, they branched out and created NuDrain Phoenix, a division of Peerless Plumbing Company and Nudrain Phoenix.  Since 2019, Christian and Lindsey have grown the company but kept the same business structure that his father built.  His father knew that helping the community was a top priority, and we've kept it that way. Peerless Plumbing Company and Nudrain Phoenix does not rely on high-pressure sales, but honesty.  Our goal is not always to get the job, but to educate the community and provide honest answers and real solutions.
