Groundman to Journeyman Lineworker

There is no exam that makes you a journeyman lineworker in most of the country: the apprenticeship confers it, and the apprenticeship starts with a CDL and a climbing school. This path builds the way the work does: how power actually gets delivered, the methods used on energized and de-energized lines, the OSHA rules that govern every one of them, and then the entry requirements, the apprenticeship itself, and where the career goes after journeyman.
