More than 50 people gathered at the Durham Technical Community College Northern Durham Center Friday to celebrate the 10th Electric Line Technician graduating cohort.
The Electric Line program started in Spring 2019 out of a partnership with Duke Energy that funded students to participate in the program at no cost, and which covers registration, tuition, fees, and equipment.
The most recent cohort started class on March 28 and the program lasted for 10 weeks. Students learned to climb poles, install equipment, safety codes and applications, overhead and underground electric line construction practices and more. Students also received their CDL permit by taking an online Saturday class for five weeks prior to the Electric Line class beginning.

“Before the Center for the Global Learner existed, several college employees worked on international issues and initiatives, but collaboration occurred in social contexts rather than as a deliberate strategy. The creation of the CGL gave these employees a much stronger opportunity for daily direct communication and stronger collaboration,” said Karin Abell, Director of English as a Second Language at Durham Tech.
The Center for the Global Learner was established in Fall 2009 to support Durham Tech’s vision of fostering intercultural understanding and the development of engaged global citizens.
