About the Electrical Applications Program
Take the first steps toward an in-demand career by completing the Electrical Applications diploma program at OBC
Electricity powers so much of our daily lives — from our lights to our laptops, our cell phones to our appliances. We depend on electricity everywhere we go, whether it’s at home, at the office, in schools, at the grocery store or the hospital, or even when we’re waiting at a stoplight. And when the lines go dark, whether from bad weather or bad timing or just everyday malfunctions, everyone calls one person to get things back online: an electrician.
*We now offer the Electrical Applications program at our Columbus campus location. This program is currently pending approval by the Commission of the Council on Occupational Education.
At Ohio Business College, you can enroll in an electrician training program that can prepare you for an entry-level position as an electrician, providing skills and services needed in various settings, including residential, commercial and industrial. Whether it’s wiring a new building, fixing an electrical problem, or getting old wiring up to code, Ohio Business College can get you the training you need to become an electrical technician.
