Operations & Maintenance Apprentice

Summary

Cordia Thermal Company Omaha provides heating and cooling to non-residential buildings in downtown Omaha via three energy plants and an underground piping distribution system. The O&M Apprentice is required to learn safe, reliable and efficient operation and maintenance of all plant equipment and distribution systems in accordance with written plant procedures and under the direction of their supervisor and assigned mentor.

Principle Responsibilities / Key Results Areas

The O&M Apprentice reports to their supervisor for work, training, and academic assignments. A mentor will be assigned to each apprentice for "On the Job Training" (OJT). All requirements of the program are designated in the Registered Apprenticeship Standards.

  • The apprentice will work approximately 30 hours per week at the plant and / or on the distribution system.

Control Operator

  • In conjunction with OJT, the apprentice will work towards an associate degree at Metro Community College (MCC), for approximately 10 hours per week.
  • Wages : Start at $20 / hour, with incremental increases each year, provided the apprentice meets required milestones. The apprentice will be paid for OJT (about 30 hours / week) but will not be paid during courses at MCC (however, tuition for these courses will be covered by the apprenticeship program).
  • At the end of the apprenticeship, the apprentice is free to seek employment as a journeyman, with no further obligation to Clearway Energy Center Omaha; however, if the journeyman desires to remain at Clearway Energy Center Omaha, s / he may apply for any open positions.
