The Best Electricians in the World

Michigan has long been recognized for its highly skilled workforce. In fact, Michigan has led the way in quality and talent in the manufacturing sectors for decades. Now, as we face some of the biggest economic challenges since the Great Depression, the question many are asking is “Where do we go from here?”

Understanding that the highly skilled workforce that exists right now in Michigan is a tremendous advantage to other regions is the first step. Our state has long led the way with a highly skilled workforce and because of this we have the best foundation for growth as the Michigan economy is reshaped in the coming years.

This is especially true among the NECA contractors and IBEW Local 58 journeymen in Southeastern Michigan. Companies expanding within Michigan and new start ups coming to Michigan can be assured of the best quality and most highly skilled workforce. The value of jobs being completed on time and right the first time is a tremendous benefit in the market place.

“Our contractors understand the importance of productivity in today’s competitive marketplace. The skill level of our workforce sets us apart. As the Michigan economy evolves, so will we.” Dan Tripp, Executive Vice President NECA of Southeastern Michigan.

The partnership between NECA of Southeastern Michigan and IBEW Local 58 has long recognized the need to provide state of the art training to maintain their competitive edge and in fact, completely fund their own training at the Electrical Industry Training Center in Warren.

This group boasts a resume of work as impressive as it is diverse. They built the power plants, the high rises, the bridges and ball parks. The airport, arenas and auto plants. Theaters, hospitals and schools that all play a role in making up the fabric of our region. Through their commitment to training, the IBEW NECA team is poised to build the Michigan of the future as they have for many decades.

“We’re ready and committed to being part of the dialogue and the solution for Michigan. We are the best electricians in the world.” Joe Abdoo, Business Manager, IBEW Local 58.
