In only two years, since Rosendin Electric CEO Mike Greenawalt came to GCU with the idea of filling a growing demand for electricians with a program to better prepare them to enter the field, 285 have completed the pathways for electricians and for machinists, which launched last year.
“We are getting productive and safe men and women instead of people who couldn’t spell electrician,” said Greenawalt, whose company is a founding partner.
“It’s definitely working. We’ve learned a lot about the education system, and the education system has learned a lot about business. They are going to be teaching classes in the Colangelo School of Business about this someday.”
