Shane Hermetz, Manager of Engineering, graduates from Management Internship Program

Egyptian Electric Cooperative's Engineering Manager, Shane Hermetz, has completed an intensive program in electric utility management with the University of Wisconsin - Madison.

The Robert I. Kabat Management Internship Program (MIP) is a series of workshops offered by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association in conjunction with the University of Wisconsin.  The program guides participants through all facets of the electric utility industry, including the many changes occurring around the nation.

Shane Hermetz is one of only a affew electric utility management staff that will graduate from the program this year. MIP participants go through three 10-day sessions designed to challenge and educate participants in new, innovative managment techniques.  Participants leave with a better understanding of what consumers want and how to ensure they get it. 

Hermetz has now completed one of the most exclusive educational programs in the nation for electric cooperative management.  Shane is shown here (left) with Gary Pfann, Director, Executive and Staff Education, NRECA.
