Tile Layers and Finishers

Our Tile Setter program is a 4-year program.  A total of 576 hours of related and supplemental class instruction plus 8000 hours of On-the-Job-Training is required to reach Journeyman status.   There are 8 periods in which you will advance in.  Each period advancement carries higher wages. 

Our Tile Finisher program is a 2-year program.  A total of 288 hours of related and supplemental class instruction plus 4000 hours of On-the-Job-Training is required to reach Journeyman status.  There are 4 periods in which you will advance in.  After completing the Finisher program you will be encouraged to 'switch-over' to the Setter program.  There is an advantage becuase you will only need to put in 3-years instead of 4-years of required training and instruction to reach Journeyman status as a Tile Layer.
