Lineman Tech Center

Got Power? Most people don’t realize how their electric service is provided or who is responsible to keep it on. Lineman Tech Center will prepare you to be one of the elite, last American Cowboys.

 

If you have been searching for a challenge, honor and a rewarding career, consider line work. Line work will give you the freedom to work outdoors; it will guarantee a physical and mental reward and is one of the highest paying trades that exist. Current demand for line workers is at an all time high, there is no better time than now.

 

Training at the Lineman Tech Center will prepare apprentice-level students for employment in the electrical industry. We accomplish this by using training methods that have proven to be effective in preparing individuals to be highly qualified and successful employees.

Training includes:

Safety Rules and Regulations

CDL

Pole climbing

Pole top Rescue and Bucket Rescue

CPR, First Aid, Basic Rescuer

System Protection and Operation

Personal Protection Equipment

 

WARNING:

The career of LINEMAN is restricted, it’s not for the weak minded or the faint of heart, working conditions include rain, cold, hot, dark, high wind and all combinations and extremes of these. Normal work hours apply only when all the lights are on; if someone is out of service your work day is not over.  Work stations are at an elevated level, if you like staying on the ground floor this career is not for you.  High voltage is most always present yet invisible, and fear is always a factor.

 

It’s a lineman thing; you wouldn’t understand...YET
