Help us congratulate Kyle Troxler on his promotion to journeyman lineman after completing a four-year apprentice program through the Missouri Public Utility Alliance!
The program requires classroom, correspondence and hands-on training workshops with monthly and annual exams on electric curriculum, including overhead and underground systems; pole climbing, installing and mounting; conductors, transformers, substations and equipment operation. He was required to attend hands-on immersion skills training workshops including a week-long session for pole climbing, pole top rescue and bucket truck operation. The workshops included the fundamentals and experience necessary to qualify lineworkers in pole climbing as well as bucket truck essentials.
Having completed the program, Kyle logged more than 7,200 hours of on-the-job training and is now a certified United States Department of Labor journeyman lineman.
As a journeyman lineman, Kyle will be responsible for the installation, maintenance and repair of overhead and underground electric distribution systems while ensuring safe and reliable service for Conway Corp customers.
“Kyle has proven himself through hard work and determination during his apprenticeship,” Conway Corp Electric Distribution System Senior Foreman Mark Rowlett said. “We’re proud to see him take the next step as a journeyman lineman.”
Kyle joined Conway Corp in April 2018 as a groundman. He was promoted to apprentice lineman 1 in 2022, apprentice lineman 2 in 2023, apprentice lineman 3 in 2024 and apprentice lineman 4 in 2025.
Congrats, Kyle!
