Spotlight: Electrical Lineworker Academy

The Electrical Lineworker Academy has been so popular that we are expanding! This academy is a 10-week, highly structured and intensive training program designed to prepare men and women for work in the utility industry. 

CCC collaborated with local power utility employers to develop this Academy, ensuring the skills being taught are what employers want.
