College Utility Training Programs (US)

National Grid has partnered with various colleges throughout our US service territory on programs designed to prepare students for entry-level positions in the electrical and/or gas utility industry.

The programs vary in nature and duration, but rely on the knowledge and skills of our National Grid Academy instructors to support specific courses within these programs.

Some of the programs are delivered entirely at the colleges, while others have certain courses that are delivered by our instructors at the National Grid Learning Centers.
