I graduated in 2006 with an associates degree in electronics, worked in avionics repair, marine and got into 2 way radio communications. Went and worked for two local counties on the 911 radio system. Now the past two years for a power utility doing SCADA, SONET, radio, telephone, microwave, fiber optics etc...Don't most power utilities offer paid apprenticeship programs? I know mine does.
