The solution is simple

The Electrical Foreperson Training course doesn’t reinvent the wheel of what it means to be an Electrical Foreperson. It does lay out and codify industry best practices, and deliver the full course in one day. A single day that can make your new team members (almost) as effective as your veteran staff.
