Program Overview
This one-of-a-kind in the Western United States part-time Lineworker Pre-Apprenticeship program provides students with the core knowledge and fundamental skills necessary for entry-level positions in the electric power industry. This cost-efficient program includes important core knowledge and skills taught in the classroom and in the lab but does not provide the depth of "on-the-job" training that lineworker apprentices receive. Students will be exposed to a wider spectrum of electric power technology topics and the accompanying career options they present so the student will be prepared for multiple career paths.
