Cover Story<br />

Al Cook: 29 Years as LCSC Workforce Training Instructor<br />

When Al Cook instructed his first group of electrical apprentices in 1989 for Workforce Training, the<br />

Oscar for Best Picture went to “Rain Man.” The number one song on the Billboard Top 100 list was<br />

“Miss You Much,” by Janet Jackson, and the San Francisco 49’ers had just won their third Super<br />

Bowl. Twenty-nine years later, Al is teaching his last group of apprentices and his knowledge and<br />

experience will be greatly missed.<br />

In nearly three decades as an instructor, Al touched the lives of over 900 students. His dedication<br />

didn’t end in the classroom, he tutored many students in his own home, helping them through the<br />

struggles of load calculations and wiring diagrams. Al’s love for his fellow man extends beyond<br />

the classroom as he volunteers his time to build homes for Habitat for Humanity. His legacy is<br />

highlighted by the fact that one of his former students is now an instructor in the apprentice program<br />

at Workforce Training.<br />

Al is moving on to new challenges, using his Master Electrician license to help with the family<br />

business, Cook Brothers Electric. He and his wife Bev have some traveling to do, which will no<br />

doubt include a few rounds of golf. Thank you Al, for your dedication to the electrical trade, and<br />

decades of mentoring generations of journeyman electricians. And Al…remember to keep that two<br />

iron shot low and straight.<br />
