FOUNDER’S
MESSAGE
Congratulations on considering a career in telecommunications—an
industry that offers many rewards and challenges with excellent pay,
benefits, and security. NLC provides the quality education needed to
prepare you for success.
Everyone needs telecommunication services, and it’s the highly respected tradespeople
who keep this service running in all weather conditions, at all hours. In my opinion, this is
one of the greatest trades of all, made up of great people. A career in telecommunications
should be strongly considered by those who enjoy challenges, adventure, problem-
solving, and camaraderie. This trade is an ideal choice for people who like working with
their hands and want variety and physical activity in their work. It also provides many
opportunities for advancement into leadership and management roles.
Many of my NLC colleagues and I have worked as tradespeople for leading utility and
construction companies through the nation; in fact, I graduated from a program quite
similar to NLC’s Electrical Lineworker Program. It is this firsthand experience as seasoned
tradespeople—and now as professional educators—that allows us to know precisely the
knowledge, skills, and behavior required for you to be a top candidate with companies
across the country.
This catalog has a wealth of information to help you explore a career possibility in
telecommunications. Planning and preparation are key, so please read this document
thoroughly, ask questions, and visit our campuses to meet with our remarkable training
specialists and staff. We want to make sure this trade and our training program fit you and
your career goals.
Thank you for considering us for this very important training. NLC creates a positive
learning environment, and I assure you that our commitment to providing a quality
education remains unwavering.
You may only be here a short time, but you enroll for a lifetime—NLC will always help
you advance.
Sincerely,
Aaron Howell
Founder
NLC founder Aaron Howell is a lineman, educator, and International Lineman Hall of Fame inductee.
He has traveled the country many times, meeting with utility and construction company personnel to ensure

History
The history of NLC dates back to 1991, when two of its founders—Gerald McKie and Aaron Howell (both Boise
State University linework trainers at the time)—realized that a more modern program needed to be developed.
The two decided the best course of NLC’s commitment to continual Throughout its history, NLC’s leaders

would become the Electrical Lineworker
Program (ELP)—a modernized, student-
focused approach to linework training.
Studying the needs of power companies
across the United States, they developed
an innovative curriculum designed to
graduate the most competitive candidates
in the country. After two years of research
and development, NLC was founded in
April 1993, opening its doors to the first
ELP class in August that same year.
The new approach was well received,
drawing considerable attention from the
industry’s best and brightest. In 1998,
Alan Drew—a lineman, engineer, and
one of the industry’s foremost experts on
linework operations and history—joined
ranks. Drew contributed immediately,
formalizing overall operations of the
college, which led to national accreditation
in 2000.
NLC’s pioneering spirit proved to be a
catalyst for growth in other areas. In
1998, more groundbreaking curriculum
was produced that took complex topics
and explained them using simple-to-
understand language and well-illustrated
imagery—luxuries the industry had been
starved for. That effort would become
the foundation for the Power Delivery
Programs, NLC’s distance-learning
subsidiary. Hundreds of power companies
enrolled thousands of employees in the
programs, only to request even more
training. Before long, NLC was delivering
on-site training to thousands more
lineworkers and other professionals across
the country—even around the world.
These efforts were led by alumnus Michael

ABOUT NLC
three-phase educational model
NLC created its Three-Phase Educational Model® based on well-researched educational theories. Using this
model as the basis for the training in all NLC programs, each academic course, skill competency, and behavior
expectation fits directly into one of the three educational phases: knowledge, skill, or behavior.
knowledge phase
The Knowledge phase addresses
cognitive, or intellectual, activities.
Engaging students at the highest
cognitive level occurs in a classroom or lab
setting. The development of intellectual
skills includes the recall or recognition of
specific facts, procedural patterns, and
concepts that serve in the development
of intellectual abilities and skills.
skill phase
The Skill phase is the “hands-on” phase of
training. This is where students learn and
practice the fundamentals of field-based
methods. First demonstrated by training
specialists, students follow their direction
in practicing and building fluency in each
competency, which is later timed and
rated for proficiency. Often strenuous, the
Skill phase offers students the opportunity
to condition their physical strengths to
meet the demands of their industry.
behavior phase
While knowledge and skill are important,
positive behavior and attitude have been
identified by utility and construction
company leadership as attributes
a potential employee must have. For this
reason, the Behavior phase focuses on
safety, camaraderie, customer service,
and conviction, to help students develop
steadfast reputations for being mature,
reliable, safe, and civic-minded.

The global telecommunications industry offers many opportunities for exciting and rewarding long-term
careers. It is a robust, $2,693-billion industry1 that employs more than 122,0002 American workers as of 2018.
The backbone of the digital world is
telecommunications. Imagine a world
without the Internet or wireless digital
communication. No smart phones, no
online purchases, no streaming video,
no social media, no digital apps, and
no cloud-based computing. Hard to
imagine, right? Without the important
work of telecommunications lineworkers
and equipment installers and repairers, ID
none of these technologies would exist
today. Each time the wireless network
adds another “G” or requires more
bandwidth, the men and women in the
telecommunications industry make it
possible.
According to the Telecommunications
Industry Association, fiber cabling passes
by less than one third of homes in the U.S.
ID
and only 39% of consumers have access
to more than one broadband provider
of 25 Mbps service. Approximately
10 million rural homes and 3 million urban
and suburban homes can’t get broadband
speeds at all. Now as the market enters
the era of 5G, fiber matters more than
ever. With 5G relying in large part on
high radio frequencies, a large number
of small 5G radios, or “cells,” will be
required, and those small cells will require
a substantial amount of fiber. In fact, as
of 2017, estimates call for 1,390,816 miles
of fiber cable, to be exact. And that is just
to provide full 5G service to the top-25
metropolitan land areas in the United
States alone.3

2021 TELECOMMUNICATIONS LINEWORKER PROGRAM CATALOG 27cdl/clp information
Telecommunications work often requires the use of large, heavy
equipment that must be driven to and from job sites, so many utility
and construction companies require that their workers possess a Class A
commercial driver’s license (CDL).
For this reason, a commercial learner’s permit (CLP) is a requirement to graduate from
the TLP. The CLP is the first step to obtaining a CDL later, and having a CLP makes you
more attractive to employers. NLC recommends that you obtain your CLP or CDL prior to
starting the Telecommunications Lineworker Program, if possible.
TLP students also have access to NLC’s optional ELP 12330, Class A CDL Testing Course,
