Job Fair Held At DSLCC

Students in the Wind Turbine Service Technician program at Dabney S. Lancaster Community College demonstrated their skills to industry representatives at a job fair held recently at DSLCC.

John Arehart, left, of Apex, and Matt Davidson, center, of Alstom, two wind energy companies, look on as student Greg Bartocci demonstrates laboratory exercises for developing skill and knowledge in hydraulics and hydraulic systems.

The Amatrol hydraulic’s trainer is supported by online E-learning modules that augment, engage and expedite skill mastery. Whether wind or manufacturing industry, the hydraulic system-related skill sets and basic knowledge are considered essential.

Also representing the wind energy industry was Tal McBride from Highland County.

Courses in the program begin in January with a new offering at the DSLCC Rockbridge Regional Center.
