Introducing a Great New Way to Train Your Apprentices After many years of research and planning, the Rocky Mountain Chapter IEC is proud to introduce a brand new web-based remote training program for apprentices.  As the informational brochure at the bottom of this paragraph details, this program provides state-of-the-art training...both in the way it is delivered and in the quality of the curriculum...that will far surpass the "correspondence courses" that have been used to meet this need in the past. The RMC "Get Wired" Remote Training Program is specially-designed to provide quality education to those apprentices who are unable to access classroom training.  By design, it is interactive in nature and the presence of a 'live' Web instructor keeps students engaged, and accountable, in the learning process.  In addition, the generous use of visual presentations makes the curriculum both informative and interesting at the same time.
