(Williamson, WV) — Southern WV Community & Technical College hosted a graduation celebration for its second Lineman/CDL class on Saturday, October 29th, 2022.
The ceremony was held at the Applied Technology Center on the Williamson Campus.
During the celebration, the graduates showcased what they learned during the 16-week course.
“We are so proud of these students and what they have accomplished during their time at Southern,” Charles Isaacs, Southern’s Lineman Instructor, said.
After the ceremony, students showed off their skills in a hurt man rescue drill, an egg climb, and other line construction events.
“We couldn’t ask for better people to join this ever-changing field of work,” said Southern’s Jay Lester, Workforce Director. “We are blessed to be a part of this program.”
In October, this cohort of students will leave Southern with a Class–A Commercial Driver’s License, an Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) training card, and a lineman certification.

I am proud of these students and wish them the best in their future careers.”
