Tennessee Job Training & Safety
Tennessee Job Training & Safety is a joint venture between the Tennessee Electric Cooperative Association (TECA), the Tennessee Municipal Electric Power Association (TMEPA), and Tennessee College of Applied Technology in Murfreesboro (TCATM). The program provides job and safety training and support in health and safety issues for utility workers throughout the state of Tennessee.
Our primary service is the monthly safety meetings conducted by our instructors in their assigned areas. These meetings cover topics listed in the annual program schedule, as set by the coordinator per recommendation and approval of the advisory committee.
