Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Iles deploys wind turbine program to remote communities

The Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Iles has announced that it will launch a wind turbine maintenance training program in remote communities in Québec. The 11-week program uses a mobile laboratory to visit communities and provide the necessary training. Cégep de la Gaspésie Director of Continuing Education Eric Couillard explained that the distances involved can make it difficult for many in remote and indigenous communities to attend training institutions. To address this, the cégep is improving access to the programming by bringing the training right to these communities.
