An apprenticeship is a post-secondary education that begins with finding an employer. Employers hire apprentices, typically pay their wages and provide on-the-job training and work experience. Approximately 60% of an apprentice’s time is spent on the job under the supervision of a qualified Manager and Technician. The other 40% involves technical training provided at a post-secondary institution, i.e. Nashville State Community College, Humphrey County Campus. This is a part time position. Location: New Johnsonville, Tennessee Hours: Part-time schedule of 25 hours per week Preferred First Term: June, 2026 Apprenticeship technical training is delivered by Nashville State. This process will be a cooperative education structure combining classroom-based education with practical work experience at the Chemours Site as a LSE Employee. Upon satisfactorily completing four semesters of the program the apprentice will receive an Associate’s Degree in Industrial Process Control Technology. After successfully completing semester four and applicable NCCER exams, the apprentice could begin a two-year on-site training progression as a full service Chemours Trainee. During their training period they will work in defined crew rotations. Apprentices will receive competitive wages with the opportunity to increase as the student progresses through the program. Apprentices will work on-site during school technical training breaks, i.e. summer and Christmas breaks. Beginning the second semester the apprentices will work on-site M-W-F and attend classes at Nashville State on T-Th. Apprentices will be paid for the hours worked on-site only.
