-self paid.  Done to qualify for positions at DSM DYNEEMA.

 

Qualified for Electromechanical Technician Position at Hospira(Abbott Labs.)

I did Abbott's tests and interviews while working for Rubbermaid.  I was happy with Rubbermaid, but I was very tempted after taking the tests and after seeing part of the facility.

 

I took the test on proveit.com for a facility just outside of Rocky Mount, NC.  They said I did well, but I do not have the overall score.  Each section is scored seperately.  Some of it was difficult and some of it was easy.  It gives a fairly good idea of what you really know.  It's a good test for any industrial facility to give.   If I were not going to work at Dyneema, this was where I was heading. 

 

I have had some other training seminars for Siemens Vector Drives and AS-I Safety Networks, but they do not have a credit value of which I know.  But both were good classes.  The last drive training was for Lenze Drives.
