Since its inception in 2018, ULCS has partnered with Coastal Carolina Community College and the United States Marine Corps (USMC) SkillBridge through its Powerline Apprentice Program. During the 14-week program, students enrolled in the Powerline Apprentice Program learn fundamental skills needed to launch a career with electrical utilities. The program’s emphasis on safety aligns with ULCS’s values, offering students the opportunity to earn a number of certifications including First Aid/CPR, OSHA 10, and a Class A Commercial Driver’s License.
USMC SkillBridge program works with military veterans to build a career and learn a trade after completing active duty.

We are proud to continue supporting the Coastal Carolina Community College and USMC SkillBridge as they educate the next generation of lineworkers.
