Education Outreach Program

Our Education and Outreach Program connects students and communities to the essential services that power daily life. Through hands-on learning, classroom partnerships, facility tours, and community programs, we help students explore how power, water, and rail utilities operate and why they matter. From early learning through high school and beyond, we inspire curiosity, build awareness of public utilities, and introduce students to the many rewarding career paths available in the utility industry, including apprenticeships, internships, technical training, and family-wage careers that strengthen our community.
