Thank you for the presentation. I have been in the HVAC field for over two decades and did not realize the potential job possibilities. It is great to learn about the job options in the propane industry and our students now have some great networking opportunities through the GeneratioNext Propane Pros web portal.

My Bellingham Technical College students and I enjoyed the opportunity to listen to Michelle Wilson and her special guest speaker, Mr. Vanderyacht, speak of the opportunities that the propane industry and the GeneratioNext group have to offer them when they graduate in June. Many were interested in the opportunity to earn a CDL to accompany the other certifications they have earned. We enjoyed the informative lesson on the propane industry and learning of all the job placement opportunities the propane industry can offer that would allow my students to use the degree they have earned in the HVAC trade. I look forward to future meetings and presentations with Michelle and the GeneratioNext Propane Pro’s group.

Richland Community College is proud to partner with GeneratioNext Propane Pros to provide our students with new career opportunities they may not have thought of previously. Students were able to engage possibilities within the propane industry through their presentation. And, within an engaging discussion, were able to learn how this set of skills is in high demand in the propane industry. Following the presentation, students have been reaching out to employers to discuss apprenticeship, internships, and full-time positions.

The GeneratioNext Propane Pros Presentation was very insightful and informative. For any who do not know much about the Propane Industry or even what jobs might be available, this presentation was helpful. The weblink for multiple employers is a valuable resource for job leads and job marketing. As a Career Service Advisor, the weblink is a great resource into what jobs are available to better assist HVAC students and graduates.

GeneratioNext Propane Pros spoke with our CDL students recently and the students were highly receptive. Learning about opportunities in the propane industry in a smaller community is a great benefit. I look forward to continuing working with GeneratioNext Propane Pros in future classes.
