How to join IBEW Local 3

Each Electricians local sets its own intake process, and it varies — we don't guess at IBEW Local 3's rules. The common paths into a Electricians local:

  1. Apprenticeship — Apply through the local's joint apprenticeship training committee (JATC). Most Electricians programs open applications on a set schedule and require an aptitude test and interview.
  2. Organize in as an experienced worker — Journeymen and technicians already working in the trade can usually apply directly to the hall for membership.
  3. Transfer from another local — Members of the same international can request a transfer card through their current hall.

For IBEW Local 3's current application window, fees and requirements, contact the hall directly at (718) 591-4000 or visit the local's official site.

How to apply for a job

  • Through the hall — Many locals dispatch work through a referral or out-of-work list. Whether IBEW Local 3 uses one, how to sign it and how often to re-sign are set by the local — confirm with the hall.
