Electrical Products Education Course

Elliott Electric Supply's long-term success relies on the success of our employees. In this highly competitive industry, an employee's ability to add value to our products and services is critical. For more than 30 years, the Electrical Products Education Course (EPEC) has been educating industry sales professionals about individual products, their applications, and how they are interrelated with other products in electrical systems.

There are three tiers of recognition: Bronze, Silver, and Gold, each with five modules, which makes EPEC the most comprehensive training program ever developed for our industry. EPEC is only recommended to individuals who have at least eight months of experience in electrical distribution.

Employee Earns EPEC Gold Status Award

As an employee, if you complete the EPEC Program, we will pay for the course materials and award you cash bonuses for completion.
Any employee who graduates will also receive a Laminated Plaque.

Who is Eligible for the Program?

Whether you're looking to move up within Elliott Electric Supply or seeking to strengthen your leadership capabilities, the LDP provides the tools and knowledge necessary for professional growth and success. Because we value talented individuals and diverse perspectives, candidates aren't required to have experience within the electrical industry or a college degree. (A college degree is required, however, if a candidate is recruited straight from college.) This comprehensive course is available to all current employees as well as prospective team members.

Employee Recruit

Company recruits provide a company-wide pool of trained Branch Managers and Salespeople for future needs. They are selected by approved recruiters and placed in an approved training store.

Outside Recruit

Local recruits provide a specific area with a pool of trained Branch or Operations Managers and Salespeople for future needs. They are recruited by Area Managers and placed in an approved training store with the intention of continuing their careers locally.

How to Get Started

All recruits must have the ability to learn quickly, work hard, exhibit strong customer service skills, communicate effectively, be a problem solver, and be self-motivated. Recruits are hired with the intention of being part of a pool that can be flexible and move where opportunity is presented. If you're interested and would like to apply for consideration, contact the Employee Training and Development Department at Elliott Electric Supply.
