Utility Worker Training Program Available!

Are you interested in becoming an Electrical/Utility Lineworker?  If so, know that there is a special program available through Capital Area Michigan Works! that could possibly pay for the tuition, fees and textbooks for the courses included in Lansing Community College's Electrical/Utility Lineworker Certificate program!

Capital Area Michigan Works! has partnered with Lansing Community College and the Workforce Development Agency State of Michigan to administer a U.S. Department of Energy grant designed to increase the pool of trained candidates available to enter Michigan's electrical utility workforce.

The  32-credit,16 month certificate program includes a rigid application process where individuals granted department approval must then attend mandatory program meetings, two-semesters of academic classes followed by a 9-week climbing school which will be conducted in Marshall, Michigan.  While there is no guarantee of job placement, successful completion of this training will prepare individuals to enter lineworker apprenticeships in utility companies as well as other occupations utilizing similar skills.  The next program begins this month with completion in July, 2013. 

If interested, attendance at a mandatory informational meeting will begin the process.  Information meeting dates are (must attend one meeting):
