Training
No other organization serves the training needs of the
Sprinkler Fitting industry like the United Association. For
over a century, the UA has been training the most
highly-qualified workers in the United States and Canada.
Over the past several decades, the United Association's
training programs have produced a stable, skilled workforce
responsible for building and maintaining sprinkler systems
in the various industrial, commercial and residential
facilities that make up the North American landscape.
No one can match the commitment or investment. The UA spends
over $100 million annually on training programs efforts
involving approximately 100,000 journeymen and apprentices
in over 400 local training facilities at any given time.
If the United Association wanted to select the area which
best reflects this commitment to the training and excellence
produced, it could well look to the Twin Cities. Sprinkler
Fitters Local 417 has a brand new state of the art training
facility which we encourage you to come and visit. You can
call to set up a tour or just stop by, we are here most days
during business hours.
In addition to our five-year apprenticeship programs,
Sprinkler Fitters Local 417 offers continuing education
opportunities that includes journeymen training and
certification, as well as an associate’s degree program.
We understand the importance of having trained quality
crafts people installing, inspecting, testing, and
maintaining your fire protection systems and no one in
Minnesota trains more or better quality fire sprinkler
fitters than U.A. Local 417.
