DANIEL PLOWMAN

Graduated January 2007 from the Red Rock College

"I graduated from OCC and was able to start work the following Tuesday as an equipment operator making a good double digit hourly rate. I work for a large company that maintains and renovates water treatment plants. I operate everything where I work. Right now I am on a loader. I am only a level 1 graduate. The field work I did at the school helped me to get into the equipment I have had the chance to get in. When the boss asks if I can run a piece of equipment I just tell him no problem. The only reason I can do that is because of the instruction I received and the help from the instructors."
