What People Are Saying about Our Workforce Development Programs

“The Alabama Propane Gas Association has been partnering with GeneratioNext Propane Pros since 2021 and we are delighted with the results of the program.  This workforce development program brings great value to our membership as an aging workforce is one of our industry’s greatest challenges in preparing for the future.  Michelle Wilson has provided propane marketers throughout our state with qualified candidates and numerous hires.  In Alabama, we currently have over 350 active CDL and HVAC candidates looking for hire today!  I would encourage everyone in the propane industry to take advantage of this invaluable resource.”  —Laural Bunn, Executive Director, Alabama Propane Gas Association

 

“During a time when labor shortages and an aging workforce are plaguing our industry, Michelle Wilson with GeneratioNext Propane Pros gave us an opportunity that we would not have otherwise had to speak with CDL classes in our area to promote not only the propane industry but also Superior Gas.  Michelle provided a positive, pro propane PowerPoint highlighting the benefits of our industry, made the presentation process very easy, and guided us through discussing career options available within our company.  Hopefully, informing and educating new CDL candidates about career opportunities in the propane industry will spur much needed “young blood” to enter the propane workforce.  We greatly appreciate the opportunity that Michelle and GeneratioNext facilitated for us.” —Rainer Montgomery & Jerry Walker, Superior Gas Company
