Foreman Academy Track 1

This four day-long series of classes is designed to provide line crew foremen with knowledge and skills outside the scope of fundamental linework. This will allow them to be more effective leaders and supervisors as well as help them understand their role and responsibilities of their job within the utility. The three-track series will cover topics for the new line-foreman to the experienced line-foreman. Subject areas include leadership, safety, technical and management skills. Individuals attending the Academy will receive a certificate for each Track completed and an overall completion certificate if all three Tracks are completed (and the online class Work Zone Traffic Control). Track 1 addresses attitude and responsibility, OSHA standards, labor law and the organizational impact of processing paperwork.
