SEL University SEL University addresses the urgent need for power industry
workforce training with the comprehensive family of courses
described in this catalog. These courses are taught by the
Power Through best instructors in the industry. Their impressive knowledge is
Knowledge matched only by their enthusiasm for education.
SEL University instructors understand that electric power
systems have changed significantly over the past two or three
decades and operate closer to security limits. Generation is
becoming distributed, variable, and more difficult to dispatch. The
power grid infrastructure is aging, and there is a growing demand
for personnel equipped with mixed skills to support modern
power systems.
In addition, the electric power industry is facing the challenge
of an aging workforce. The loss of this historical knowledge
jeopardizes the ability to maintain reliable electric service.
Finally, the number of engineering graduates and skilled workers
entering the workforce may not be enough to replace the
imminent number of retirements. As dean of SEL University and
on behalf of our instructors, we look forward to meeting your
workforce training needs.
