“SEPATEC gave me a tremendous start into my career in the propane industry by providing industry standard training at their well-designed facility. Their highly trained and professional instructors made learning easy and very translatable from my former career as an Army Mechanic. The balance of classroom to hands-on learning allowed me to retain the information quickly while allowing self-paced repetitions with all hands-on tasks for better understanding. After graduation, their workforce generation program provided opportunity through interviews into finding my new career into the propane industry.”
