Gordon Central High School:
Success Story
Before I became a construction teacher, I studied at Georgia Northwestern Technical College in the Electrical Program that was taught by Professor Scott Carter. During my time there he taught me many things; theories, commercial, industrial, and even residential electrical work.
One of the most memorable and impactful tools he used to help teach me was the Greenlee Labs. A nice, efficient set-up that was able to simplify and broaden my electrical knowledge. From the nice cabinets, precise conduit benders, and perfectly gripped wire strippers, I seemed to find myself always grabbing a tool that was covered with a Greenlee label. Not only are the tools of a professional quality, but the lessons that went with the tools made it so much easier to understand some of the concepts.
As I follow in Professor Carter’s footsteps and teach the future of America, I show them the same concepts I remember from the labs and ways that I work by what I learned through the information found in them. I educate them on the steps to create quality work from the memories I have of my college classes and the information-filled Greenlee labs. The same steps I was learned to bend a 3-bend saddle or a 90-degree bend. All the great things I was able to learn and complete through the Greenlee lab I still use today. Without the knowledge I acquired, my capability to figure out and work through difficult tasks in the construction world would not be near what it is.

Success Story
I am a graduate of the Electrical Systems program at Georgia Northwestern Technical College and currently employed as an electrical technician by SHAW Industries Group, Inc. We supply all types of residential and commercial flooring to markets worldwide.
My certifications with Greenlee helped me in not only obtaining my position but also in acquiring a full-time role. My workmates were blown away that not only did I have certifications, but I even knew how to use the equipment that I was certified on properly. I feel that this training will continue to benefit me and make me more marketable in a very competitive field.
I am very grateful to Greenlee for the generosity shown to me when I competed in Skills USA. Many times, when I looked up, Mr. Lehr was there cheering me on. I am very happy that I can put my Greenlee tools to work every day.
