• "As the Statewide Department Chair over the Electrical Lineworker program for Texas State Technical College, I wanted to give you an update on our program in the new environment as we all deal with the changes caused by the COVID-19 virus.

    With shelter in place orders throughout our communities, we have been challenged to provide an online curriculum to our students. We have decided to partner with T&D PowerSkills to obtain unlimited access to their training program. We have also been able to upload training videos of associated competencies to our LMS that align with our program outcomes. When it is safe, we will still have to bring students onto campus to complete the hands-on portion of their training, but the online instruction has provided us with the ability to keep our current students on track in their path to graduation while also protecting their health and safety.

    I highly recommend the T&D PowerSkills curriculum to companies, and other line schools needing online instruction or looking to upgrade their curriculum. The content is relevant from entry-level to advanced-level students and has associated section tests with each module. The service and technical support has been excellent, and we will continue to use this curriculum at all four of our campuses that offer the Electrical Lineworker Program moving forward. We see these developments as a new way for us to continue providing quality education to our students while also responding to the changes in our communities."

  • Willbros T&D Services began a Lineman Training Academy in September of 2012. We wanted to be able to train a variety of individuals, primarily Veterans, on all aspects of line work in an 8 week course that would involve 4 weeks of classroom training and 4 weeks in the field building real jobs for our customers. When we started looking for materials it was immediately obvious to us that T&D Power Skills was the direction we wanted to go. Not only did they offer a full menu of classroom materials but they were complemented by a full menu of field evaluations. We have been extremely pleased with their services and will be using more of their materials as our students are put on crews and return on a yearly basis for more advanced instruction in the various skill sets needed to ensure proper education and skills training in both overhead and underground line work.
