Draw the Blueprint for a Great Career at Plumbing School
Plumbers are one of the largest and highest paid jobs in the construction industry, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). They install and repair piping for water, waste disposal, and gas systems, both in homes and in commercial buildings. They also install household fixtures and appliances, from showers and toilets to dishwashers and water heaters. More and more plumbers are becoming involved in the design and blueprinting process of new homes and buildings.

Plumbing Programs Teach the Trade
Plumbers need an intricate knowledge of piping, tools, installation, and safety procedures. A plumbing program can help prepare you to succeed in this growing career. Coursework in plumbing degree programs includes:

• drafting and blueprint reading
• mathematics
• applied physics
• safety
• local plumbing regulations

In addition to attending plumbing school, most plumbers also train on the job, learning how to use plumbing tools, identify different grades of pipe, and install piping systems and plumbing fixtures. In most states, plumbers must be licensed. License requirements vary from state to state, but may include a certain amount of work experience and passing a knowledge exam.

The Right Degree Could be the Key to Advancement
Plumbing job opportunities should be good, according to the BLS. Those who have attended a formal plumbing program and completed a plumbing degree may also have an extra edge. With enough training, some plumbers advance to become supervisors for plumbing contractors, or start their own small businesses. Get your career laid out in the right track by enrolling in plumbing school today.
