Nate Singer and Josh Wick, linemen at Central Wisconsin Electric Cooperative, recently graduated from a four-year Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development Electrical Lineworker Apprenticeship program offered through Northeast Wisconsin Technical College in Green Bay.

The program consisted of more than 7,360 hours of on the job training, and 640 hours spent in paid-related instruction. With the completion of the program, Singer and Wick have now achieved the status of journey electric lineworker. 

They were recognized at a graduation ceremony at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells, where they received their graduate certificate.

“I’m proud of Josh and Nate for their dedication to the Apprenticeship Program and CWEC,” said Kevin Kurtzweil, vice president of Operation at CWEC. “The Apprenticeship program is lengthy, but requires work, training and personal life balance. I’m confident that Josh and Nate will be very safe and responsive linemen for the members of this co-op”

Congratulation, Nate & Josh.
