Flexible Wire From Flexible Schedules Cerrowire is a national company founded in the 1920s to manufacture electrical wire and cable. The Ogden, Utah facility opened in 1990 and has had a continuous relationship with the OWATC Custom Fit department since that time. Custom Fit has been provid- ing training in forklifts, first aid, com- puters, maintenance and operations management courses. Because quality maintenance technicians are difficult to hire, they have paired with the OWATC and the Industrial Automation Mainte- nance Program to develop internal maintenance technicians for over 20 years. OWATC’s ability to provide flexi- ble schedules makes it an excellent fit for their 24-hour operation.

He loved to cook! He continued to master his culinary creations in Pro Start classes at Davis High School.
Juston remembers, “I thought I knew everything there was to know about cooking, until I discovered the Culinary Arts program at DATC. The tu- ition was free for high school students, so I enrolled immediately. The training provided me an amazing opportunity to enhance my baking skills over my junior and senior years of high school.”
Juston graduated from DATC in September 2005 with a national certifica- tion in culinary arts. He interviewed at the Grand America hotel, was hired as a line chef, and was quickly elevated to sous chef. “After working as a sous chef for about nine months, I was promoted to banquet chef. I continued to improve my managerial skills to oversee the 1,700-person Thanksgiving brunch and 500-person Garden Café restaurant,” said Jus- ton. Now responsible for budgeting, payroll, ordering, menus and ban- quets, Juston is enjoying a rewarding fast-paced career. In return for his dedication, he has gone from a starting wage of $8.50/hour to $45,000 per year. Juston sees a future in gaining the necessary skills to properly run his own restaurant and catering business.
