Two recent graduates of the Paulding College and Career Academy's Energy Career Pathway recently completed internships with GreyStone Power and have now been hired by the company as lineman apprentices. On Oct. 18, 2021, the Paulding College & Career Academy held its first Career Signing Ceremony at the new GreyStone Power Corporation headquarters that recently opened in Paulding County.
“The two young men, Mr. Cal Bentley and Mr. Landon Aiken, have represented the Paulding College & Career Academy, and their instructor, Mr. Blake Pendley, extremely well. We are so excited to see what the future brings for them” said Ms. Marores Perry, CEO of the Paulding College and Career Academy. She added, “GreyStone Power has been an outstanding partner even before the Academy’s inception”.
Several members of the GreyStone Power Corporation Team were in attendance, including the company's CEO, Mr. Gary Miller, who expressed his intention of continuing to work with the Career Academy to provide a pipeline of skilled workers to meet the energy needs of our community for the future.
