Laying the Workforce Foundation for Drilling, Groundwater
This episode focuses on developing the future workforce in drilling, groundwater and other trades. First, host Brock Yordy talks to Ben Frech and Dave Schulenberg of the National Ground Water Association about the group’s workforce efforts. Then, we talk to Kevin Mossman Sr., president of Mossman Enterprises, and his son, Kevin Mossman Jr., who is still in sixth-grade but passionate about going into the groundwater industry.
Virtual learning during the Covid-19 pandemic put the younger Mossman in the same room as his dad, whose business does well and pump installation. Over time, Kevin Jr. has taken an active role in the company, going out on-site and seeing drilling and sampling first-hand.
