Job Description
Clean, running water and heat are necessities of life, and as a Plumber for the Army National Guard, you’ll train for a career that will always be in demand.
In this role, you will work on pipe systems for water, steam, and waste, as well as hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Duties include reading drawings, plans, and specifications, planning the layout of pipe systems, and installing and maintaining pipe systems and plumbing fixtures.
This will require the ability to work with pipe made of various materials and different pipe connection methods.
Job Duties
Maintain heating systems, basic water supply, and water distribution systems
Some of the Skills You’ll Learn
Installation and repair of plumbing fixtures, boiler controls, water purification, and distillation systems
Helpful Skills
- Interest in math and shop mechanics
- Preference for physical work
Through your training, you will develop the skills and experience to enjoy a civilian career in commercial and residential contracting.
With additional certifications, you could work for public utility companies, plumbing contractors, or as a self-employed contractor.
Earn While You Learn
Instead of paying to learn these skills, get paid to train. In the Army National Guard, you will learn these valuable job skills while earning a regular paycheck and qualifying for tuition assistance.
After 10 weeks of Basic Training, where you will learn fundamental Soldiering skills, you will attend seven weeks of Advanced Individual Training (AIT) where you'll learn what you need to get started as an Army National Guard Plumber.
As your skills increase, so will your responsibilities. Advanced Plumbing Specialists take on more challenging projects, including training and supervising other Soldiers, and performing inspections of plumbing facilities.
