Union apprenticeship sign-ups near Milwaukee - first time posting

The training centre near Milwaukee opened applications for apprenticeships in electrical and welding trades. Classes are in the evening and work is during the day. What do you wish you had known?

You earn while you learn, but the first year is tight. Plan your budget carefully.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 3 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
