Colton Wolfe was recognized at March’s safety meeting for completing the Journey Line Maintainer Program, and Colton Dietrick was recognized for the same in April. Operations Manager Tom Schmitt presented both with their Journey Line Maintainer Certificate and a wallet card from the Iowa Department of Labor. The apprenticeship program is a U.S./Iowa Department of Labor-registered program. It is a four-year, 7,000-hour commitment that provides lineworkers with occupation-related instruction and hands-on experience.

Colton Wolfe and Colton Dietrick both work out of the Independence Operations Center and have been with ECI REC for five years. Congratulations to you both!
