Position Summary:

The Electrical Craft Instructor delivers instructor-led training courses developed for the client's Electrical Craft Upskilling initiative. This is a contract, project-based role. Instructors are assigned to cohort-based delivery at client-designated project sites over 3–4 week cycles, working with cohorts of 8–12 journeyman-level electricians. Learners are experienced tradespeople, not entry-level students. This role demands technical credibility in the field, the ability to facilitate hands-on lab work at a high professional standard, and the judgment to engage journeymen as peers while maintaining delivery structure and assessment rigor. Technical depth and field credibility are the baseline.

Program Delivery

• Deliver all assigned course modules in strict accordance with approved StrataSKILLS curriculum aligned to NEC 2023, NFPA 70E 2024, OSHA 1910.269, and IEEE 1584

Lab Execution

• Set up and prepare all lab stations, tools, and training aids before each session; no student should wait on instructor setup

• Demonstrate all lab activities before students attempt them; model the safety and quality standards expected of a journeyman on a client job site

• For LV courses: execute cable preparation, crimping, cabinet layout, control wiring, and documentation labs with confidence

• For MV course: execute cable sheath removal, insulation removal, heat shrink and cold shrink termination installation, lug selection and torquing, and acceptance testing procedures

• Operate meggers, HiPot testers, and other test equipment used in MV acceptance and maintenance testing

Documentation & Reporting

• Track and record daily attendance, participation, and assessment results for every student in the cohort

• Complete required program documentation and submit to the Lead Instructor within 24 hours of each session

• Document any safety incidents, student conduct issues, equipment failures, or curriculum gaps for the Lead Instructor's attention

Site Standards

• Follow all client site safety requirements, including site-specific safety briefings, PPE requirements, and access protocols

• Inspect all training aids, tools, and lab equipment for safety and functionality before each use

• Return all materials and equipment to proper storage at the close of each session; maintain lab organization consistent with a client jobsite standard

• Communicate any site access issues, facility concerns, or equipment shortfalls to the Lead Instructor immediately

Collaboration

• Communicate cohort status and any delivery or logistics concerns to the Lead Instructor on a daily basis during active cohorts

• Provide written feedback on curriculum effectiveness, lab sequencing, and equipment adequacy following each cohort

• Participate in pre-deployment instructor calibration sessions and any required technical orientation before cohort launch

Qualifications

• Ability to pass client site access, background, and safety qualification requirements

• Journeyman Electrician card or equivalent credential

• Prior experience delivering technical training, mentoring apprentices, or serving as a lead craft in a training role

• NFPA 70E Qualified Electrical Worker (QEW) certification or formal arc flash

training

• NCCER Electrical certification
