The UK trades were:

Lineman Mechanic
Radio Mechanic
Telegraph Mechanic

I've got some of the course notes (in a box, somewhere) with a chart of the training path. Everyone got the "Workshop Practice" (Metal bashing, drilling holes and filing flat) and "Basic Theory" (Electricity & Magnetism, etc.) parts and then specialised into either Line or Wireless. Line covered telephony and telegraphy, then specialised further into (I think) Line communications (Audio repeaters, carrier telephony, switchboards, etc.), and Telegraph Mechanics (Creed teleprinters and morse transmitters, automatic exchanges (later on, probably)).

Best regards,
Chris.
