Timecards

Since November 1, 2009 WECA apprentices have had the convenient option to submit their monthly timecard (MTC) through our website at www.goweca.com. In addition, WECA will no longer mail out MTC packets; instead, apprentices will now visit www.goweca.com to print out monthly timecards for submission. WECA apprentices have the option to submit timecards:

How to submit a timecard online:

  • Click on “Log in” at the top left corner of this webpage
  • Enter your secure log-in username & password, or for first time users enter your username as your WECA student ID # and password as the last 6 digits of your SSN
  • Click on “Enter Monthly Time Cards”, and follow the directions

Meet Your Instructors

WECA believes strongly in offering the highest quality student-teacher interaction in all of our programs. As a result, we are extremely selective in choosing our instructors by focusing on their abilities to teach as well as their expertise in the electrical industry. Our instructors are full-time employees. They come from the electrical industry as former contractors, foremen, project managers and estimators - all with a stable foundation of electrical installation experience.

Each instructor goes through a rigorous credentialing and certification process by both the State of California and Division of Apprenticeship Standards. This is done to insure that each of our instructors know the materials thoroughly, and also that they can convey this information effectively to students.

Because of our instructors' backgrounds, WECA students have the opportunity to ask questions that go beyond the scope of the materials. We often hear students say, "It's great to be in a class where the instructor has been there and done that!"
