Professional Development Courses

We'll introduce you to underground components and walk you through the principles of planning, policy, design, construction, cost, and cable testing. You'll work through class exercises in policy, design, system layout, and fuse/protective device coordination. We'll also review operations considerations and NESC safety requirements.

Maintenance supervisors occupy one of the most influential roles in any organization. They don't simply supervise work—they transform organizational intent into operational results by leading people, developing capability, and driving execution. The Supervising Maintenance course equips maintenance supervisors and frontline leaders with the leadership knowledge, practical tools, and supervisory practices needed to transform organizational goals into daily execution. Participants learn how to lead people, improve team performance, communicate effectively, and develop practical action plans that strengthen both their leadership capability and the performance of their maintenance organization.
