Plumber program completion records in Minnesota

These NCES IPEDS records show historical reported completions associated with a program classification at each institution. They are not a current catalog and do not establish that training is offered now.

Plumber work and training context

Plumbers install, inspect, and repair water, drainage, and other building piping, including fixtures and connections. Work ranges from new building construction to service calls in occupied homes and businesses. Access to existing piping can make repair work different from installation.

U.S. median pay
$63,800 (May 2025)
Projected U.S. employment change
+7% (2025–35)
Typical training path
4–5 yr apprenticeship

These are national occupational figures, not local pay or a promise of a job. The linked BLS profile reports plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters together; the figures are not a plumber-only measure. Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Outlook Handbook.

Look at how a path combines layout, pipe installation, safe testing, and supervised practice. Check state or local licensing rules rather than assuming one program qualifies everywhere.
