Program details

This program provides in-person instruction only.

This course offers a complete complement of safety and technical modules designed to prepare each student for an entry level position in the wind, oil, natural gas, communication tower and many other industrial focused industries. Graduates receive certifications upon successful completion. Students will be able to explain, identify and demonstrate safe troubleshooting and maintenance procedures utilized in the wind, cellular communication tower and other industrial based industries. Throughout the course students apply their knowledge during verbal reviews, quizzes, hands-on lab practical evaluation sessions, and final exams.

Someone else may be able to pay for this

This program was on California's Eligible Training Provider List when the state last reported it to the U.S. Department of Labor (2026-08-04). Programs on that list can be paid for through an Individual Training Account. Listings are renewed periodically and can lapse, so a program listed when the state last reported may not be listed today. Ask before you rely on it.

The place to ask is an America's Job Center of California

A comprehensive center is where all the required partner programs can be reached; an affiliate site offers some of them. California's Employment Development Department directs people to CareerOneStop's finder to locate one. Contacting a center before traveling is worth it — the state notes that its own staff are not physically present at every location.

How this gets paid for, and what to ask

Whether a person can have a program paid for is decided by their local workforce development board and the America's Job Center staff who interview them — not by this site, and not by the training provider. California has 45 local workforce development areas and each sets its own policies, so the answer can differ between two people in neighboring counties. Nothing here is a promise of funding or a determination of eligibility.

The rules cited here, and the state and federal sites linked to, are published in English.
