Power and Construction Group (P&CG)
The opening of P&CG’s new utility construction training facility is the culmination of a decade-long vision. By consolidating education and hands-on performance training into one purpose-built environment, the company has created efficiencies that elevate the quality and consistency of its programs.
Key highlights of the new P&CG facility include:
Advanced Education: Moving beyond minimum compliance, the center delivers best-in-class skills development tailored to the complexities of the modern utility industry.
Modern Technology: Advanced audiovisual tools support hybrid learning, allowing instructors to engage both on-site and virtual participants simultaneously.
Operational Success: The facility has transformed Natural Gas Operation Qualifications training, resulting in higher success rates and fewer scheduling conflicts.
Community & Leadership: The space serves as a hub for industry leaders, regulators, and local youth, including a pilot program for Dansville students to explore the trades.
When evaluating our future home and training space, we wanted to keep our roots in Livingston County, where P&CG has been since 1955. After almost 30 years at our previous location, we knew we needed space to meet the growing demands of our company and technical expertise in our industry. We reached out to our contacts at the LCIDA and quickly got on the calendar to work through our potential options to make the project more feasible. The LCIDA has been a terrific partner in our project, helping us secure sales tax exemptions on purchases for the building, PILOT tax relief, and a reduction in our mortgage tax. Bill, Maureen, and their team provided timely feedback and responses throughout the application process. We are hoping to work with them more in the future if we have any more expansion plans!
