Matanuska Telecom Association (MTA) and Alaska Communications are partnering to promote telecom careers in Alaska. This collaboration supports the NECA/IBEW’s Alaska Joint Electrical Apprenticeship and Training Trust (AJEATT), offering hands-on and classroom training for electrical and telecom jobs. With $2 billion in federal funding for rural broadband, and MTA and Alaska Communications securing significant grants, the partnership aims to address the growing need for skilled telecom workers in the state. Apprentices receive free schooling, competitive salaries, and job placements, potentially earning $90,000 annually with additional benefits.

The initiative aims to close the digital divide in underserved Alaskan communities by constructing new fiber networks. Training centers in Anchorage and Fairbanks will facilitate this development. Leaders from the telecom industry emphasize the importance of this program in ensuring connectivity and job growth within Alaska.
