A Bright Outlook
Today, Local 26 has over 7,500 members, and we are still growing! The current job outlook for the next 12-18 months is good. Local 26 moved in to a new headquarters in Lanham, Maryland, which has allowed our JATC to expand their training to over 30,000 square feet. The classrooms are comprised of the latest technology available for the training of our new apprentices and to further educate our journeymen. We also have an 18,000 square foot training facility in Manassas, Virginia. In addition, we have expanded to Southern Maryland where we enjoy a partnership with North Point High School. Our satellite office in Roanoke, Virginia is the location of another training center. Because of the excellent training we offer our apprentices and journeymen, Local 26 members enjoy higher wages and better benefits than ever before. Local 26 has over 200 signatory contractors which helps us be the leader in the electrical industry in our vast jurisdiction that encompasses the District of Columbia, 5 counties in Maryland, 44 counties in Virginia, and 2 counties in West Virginia.
