Hawkeye Community College offers four-level apprenticeship programs for HVAC and Plumbing. Individuals are sponsored by an employer or local business.

An apprenticeship program combines on-the-job work experience and classroom related instruction and produces an employee that is skilled in their chosen occupation. Sponsored apprenticeship programs are a proven system for training employees and building and maintaining a highly skilled workforce.

Hawkeye Business and Community Education provides professional skill development for individuals and businesses. Cutting-edge, rigorous, and relevant career and technical education (CTE) prepares youth and adults for a wide range of high-wage, high-skill, high-demand careers.
