Apprentices will travel to Kansas City weekly for about eight months each year for classes at Manual High School. About 18 Kansas City apprentices already participate. Eligible entrants must be 18 to 23 with a high school education. after four years as an apprentice, they become journeymen earning $3.20 per hour plus G. I. training benefits if they begin within 18 months of discharge. A similar program operates in Lawrence for plumbers and journeymen, but local demand for sheet metal apprentices limits Lawrence’s participation.
