Testing The waters with a new concept from QTS: The System Operator RODEO From time to time, QTS likes to use User Conference attendees as a focus group to get their take on new concepts, product enhancements, and more. In this conversation, we talked about an emerging idea – the System Operator Rodeo. The thinking behind this event is simple: Lineman can showcase skills important to their craft and compete with each other, so why not provide an opportunity for system operators to do the same? No, system operators would not climb poles, but they could compete against each other to resolve a given system condition safely, correctly, and in a timely fashion. User Conference participants debated the pros and cons to starting up a system operator rodeo. On the pro side, such a competition fosters critical thinking, system awareness, ability to read and interpret system data independently of a company’s specific system – skills that are a hot commodity in a new reality that includes higher turnover rates in the system operator ranks. On the con side, participants would have to learn a generic system to participate, which would take away from training time on the company-specific system. Logistics of such an event would also have to be considered. One option discussed was the use of the Mini Power System at the EPTC. Overall, a number of conference participants were intrigued about this idea – so much so that QTS will send out an invite in 2018 to further explore possibilities with interested parties. Could this be the industry’s next big thing? We’ll find out… www.QualityTrainingSystems.com Office: 443.755.0790 5
