In our Wednesday, May 10, 2023 edition of the Informer– we
incorrectly placed Spencer Municipal Utilities, City of Ames Electrical
Services and Cedar Falls Utilities in the “Diamond Level” of
designations from APPA. These utilities earned Platinum Level
designation, which a great achievement and have RP3 recognition. We
apologize for the error. The article appeared here: https://members.iamu.org/blogpost/1270236/488797/Public-Power-Utilities-Earn-Reliable-Public-Power-Provider-Designation-from-APPA?hhSearchTerms=%22Public+and+Power+and+Utilities+and+Earn+and+Reliable+and+Public+and+Power%22&terms=)

 This course will once again be presented by Skip Collier of Professional Training Systems, Inc.
Skip is highly regarded and has an extensive background in electric utility design, construction, maintenance, and operation.The
EUSO Short Course is designed for any employee whose job performance
will benefit from a basic understanding of the operations side of the
business. This includes those from legal, rates, engineering,
purchasing, computer application, marketing, customer service, inventory
control, finance, accounting, safety, risk analysis as well as those
from generating plants. One goal for this class is to have students
leave with the ability to easily identify all of the electrical
equipment they see in a substation as they walk by, along with all the
equipment found on the poles in a residential area. Non-electrical
engineers are often at a disadvantage in the electric utility
environment due to a lack of familiarity with technical issues. The
better you understand the utility’s product – electrical energy – and
how it is created and distributed, the better you can serve the utility
and your customers. This course assumes no electrical background, and builds on the basics to provide a comprehensive understanding of the equipment and operations. *** Line Maintainer apprentices will receive 21 Basic OJT hours for taking the EUSO Course ***For additional information in regards to the workshop, including full agenda and registration, please click HERE.Questions? Contact Jared Masker at (800) 810-4268 or jmasker@iamu.org
