    If there’s a shortage then pay will increase. When pay increases more people will become electricians. This is a problem that solves itself.

      It takes 4 years to become an electrician in CO, it’s not like you can just go from being a restaurant server to an electrician if wages increase. So yes, we need incentives for people to go into those schools NOW, so that we have enough electricians in 4 years.
