Earn an education while working
Intermountain Electronics is proud to offer accelerated apprenticeship opportunities based on partnerships built between local high schools and Utah State University Eastern (USUE). Our goal is to provide students the opportunity to earn while they learn; gaining on-the-job skills and a steady income, while earning fast track in demand technical degrees.
Building on our shared vision with USUE and the local school district, we have created dedicated programs where students start working half time with industry their senior year, while simultaneously taking classes towards a technical degree and also earning apprenticeship credit for their work in industry. Within three years they will graduate with an associates degree which will not only provide accelerated opportunities in our growing company, but also an applicable education for skills that are highly in demand around the country.
