- 1:28Energy Training Can Inspire You to Aim High: Ken Todd’s Story | UTIAs the former Energy Program Director in Canton, Michigan, Ken Todd brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the table.The role of Program Director “involves overseeing an industrial type of training program. This program equips students with the necessary skills to secure jobs in various fields including wind turbine technicians, energy technicians, operators, boiler operators as well as diesel,” Ken says.*Ken’s journey into this field wasn’t linear. In fact, he had a couple of other career paths before this one. He dabbled in various manufacturing jobs after leaving the military but none of them were the right fit for him.After completing his education at MIAT, he was asked to stay on and teach. Two years later, he became the Program Director.Ken's passion for teaching stems from his desire to help others exceed their own expectations.“A lot of people come in with a preconceived idea of what their goals are, and they quickly find out that there’s so much more than what they thought. It’s fun for me to help turn on those lightbulbs,” he explains.Watch his video to hear Ken talk about the opportunities in wind, energy and industrial maintenance.For more information regarding the Energy Technology program at Universal Technical Institute, visit https://www.uti.edu/programs/energy/energy-technology.For more information regarding the Wind Turbine Technician program at Universal Technical Institute, visit https://www.uti.edu/programs/energy/wind-turbine.For more information regarding the Industrial Maintenance Technician program at Universal Technical Institute, visit https://www.uti.edu/programs/energy/industrial-maintenance.For additional information on specific courses, tuition and admissions, see the course catalogs at https://www.uti.edu/programs/catalogs.For more examples of how Universal Technical Institute has shaped the careers of many of today's technicians, visit https://www.uti.edu/why-uti/graduate-stories.To find the nearest UTI school near you, visit https://www.uti.edu/locations.To stay up to date with the latest news regarding UTI, join us on social media.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UTI/ X: https://x.com/utitweet Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uti.tech/*UTI and MIAT are educational institutions and cannot guarantee employment or salary.
