A certification program that will create the linemen of tomorrow got a big lift from Alabama Power; or rather, a tall one.

The company recently donated a bucket truck to Wallace Community College in Dothan. It will provide hands-on experience for students in the school’s Pre-Apprentice Electrical Lineworker program.

“The bucket truck donation allows WCC lineworker students to train with the exact equipment they will encounter in the workforce after graduation,” said Wallace workforce development director Joe Johnson. “Donations and partnerships such as this are crucial to our program and students’ success. We couldn’t be happier for our students and our regional workforce partners.”
