I'm your host, Allen Hall, along with my co host, Joel Saxum. The wind energy sector is booming, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts wind turbine service technicians will be the fastest growing job this decade. But with great growth comes a need for skilled workers, and training enough qualified technicians is vital to keep wind farm projects up and running. Pearce Renewables has been a leader in technician training, and they recently opened a new training facility in Dallas, Texas. And if you're not familiar with Pearce Renewables, and boy, you're missing out. They are the largest ISP in the U. S., and they have a great need for well trained technicians. Our guests are John Hornbeck, Manager of Learning Organizational Development, and Travis Dees, Senior Vice President of Operational Support. John and Travis, welcome to the show. Travis Dees: Thank you, Al. Happy to be here. Allen Hall: Joel and I visited your brand new, fancy training facility in Dallas, Texas. Man, is that thing impressive. Joel Saxum: Yeah, we were there while you guys were still building things, right? You had people climbing around, you were installing TVs and stuff. And at that time it was impressive. We walked in, we're like, wow, look at this place. Look at the size of it. The, I think that to be honest with you, the layout of the training rooms and everything. There's a lot of things going on there. You've got capabilities to run people through a lot of different training mechanisms as well. Travis Dees: Yeah, when we started the design in the facility, it was trying to build for the future, not for what our needs were today, right? As you said before, we're growing very quickly and the need for technicians is definitely upon all of us, but us specifically. Making sure they're trained and equipped properly before they go out in the field is our goal. We're trying to build a facility, not just in Texas, but other places as well. Starting in Texas and growing our California facility where the technicians actually want to come. They come there to get their training, but we want them to want to come back. I want them to go to the field, get some hours under their belt, and be like, hey, when do I get to go back to Dallas and hang out at that place? That place was cool, the trainers are great, they're really informative. We're trying to set out, for an awesome vibe. We want it to be. something that our people are proud of. Therefore they take that with them in the field and they, it rubs off on our other technicians and it's building our culture. You know what I mean? Like it's the, we have one opportunity to shine for our employees and this was our opportunity. So we took it and working with, incense and other companies to get all of the equipment inside of the facility was amazing. They designed an awesome jungle gym when I call it, man,
