This outdoor lab and lecture course is an introductory opportunity on how to properly climb poles and towers utilizing fall protection. Poles up to 40’ tall will be climbed on a daily basis. Students will be working in groups towards the end of this course to “wreck out/retire” old power lines and equipment from the previous year’s students. Students will be expected to wear all personal protective equipment (PPE) at all times including: Hard hat, safety glasses, gloves, long sleeve shirts, and the proper approved fall restraint system.
