The Veteran’s Electrical Entry Program (VEEP) continues to empower our veterans, helping them transition from military service to a rewarding career as Union electricians. We are thrilled to announce the graduation of our 7th VEEP cohort in August 2024, marking another successful milestone for the program and its participants.Throughout the program, these individuals not only learned valuable electrical skills but also prepared for their new roles as first-year apprentices.

The participants in this cohort represent various branches of the military and come from different parts of the country. Upon completion of the program, they will move forward in their careers, transitioning from military to civilian life with the support and strength of the IBEW. While some will remain with Local 11, others will spread out across the nation, joining locals in their respective regions and continuing their journey as Union electricians.

To our veterans, we extend our deepest gratitude for your service. We are proud to welcome you to the IBEW family, and we look forward to seeing the incredible contributions you will make to this industry. Congratulations to the 7th VEEP cohort on this significant achievement!
