About Apprenticeship Training

The International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers (IAHFIAW) accepts capable individuals into the Mechanical Insulation trades through its registered apprenticeship program, the Insulation Industry International Apprenticeship and Training Fund (IIIATF) oversees apprenticeship training for the IAHFIAW across the U.S. and Canada

Not only do apprentices gain much-needed, hands-on training on the job and inside the classroom, but they also earn a living wage and excellent benefits, including full-family medical and retirement right away.

Unlike traditional post-high school education, apprentices do not accumulate tens of thousands of dollars in student loan debt. Instead, they are put in a position to build a solid, stable middle-class life.

Consistent across the country with every Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (JATC) registered apprenticeship program, apprentices are paid escalating wages during their apprenticeship. Their wages increase as their industry knowledge and skillset grows.
