Apprenticeships last about four to five years, requiring many hours of training under licensed professionals. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports 762,600 plumbers nationwide, with 40,670 in Wisconsin, and projects a 6% job growth from 2022 to 2032. Apprentices earn an average of $675.44 per week in Madison, with an annual overtime average of $9,438. Trade schools, unions, and platforms like Gild help aspiring plumbers find apprenticeship opportunities, leading to a career with strong earning potential—often exceeding $80,000 annually for experienced professionals.
