THE ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM enables our economy and society to function. In some way everything that impacts our lives, from where we live to where we work, from our government to our infrastructure, is dependent on a secure and reliable supply of electricity. Yet many individuals, including those who work in or with the electric power industry, do not have a basic understanding of the electric power system, how it operates or how it is evolving. These courses aim to increase your understanding of the electric power system by providing you with practical knowledge that you can use as you work in or with this important industry.
WHO WILL BENEFIT:
- Non-technical personnel working at electric utilities
- Engineers and other technical personnel transitioning to the power industry
- Sales, accountants, media professionals, marketing and support personnel at power system suppliers
- Power industry policymakers, attorneys, regulators and their staff
- New hires at any power industry employer
- ANYONE with an interest in learning about the electric power systems upon which we all depend.
- Room: Rm 276
