Workplace Safety

"Tom Grey of Grey & Associates provided our first round of crane training for certification and re-certification of operators.  I  found Tom's presentation to be thorough and entertaining.  This wasn't just book learnin' either.  Tom took time to go through different pieces of equipment and do hands-on stuff, too.  He connected well with the co-workers. Many thanks go to Parkland College for hooking us up with Tom.                 --Bill T.; High Concrete Group, LLC
