Snow School > Courses > Winter Maintenance Leadership Training
For those included in the snow and ice community, winter operations is often the most costly single maintenance activity within the highway operations program.
Because it is winter maintenance, does it take what it takes? Or is it possible to effectively achieve desired goals and outcomes in an efficient manner?
Let’s look at the options, then you be the judge!
DW Clonch’s Snow School offers program content based on over 100+ years of collective team experience and practical application. With backgrounds in local (township, county and city) and state government operations our team can relate to your team’s needs.
While it is a good thing to have access to the wealth of information available in today’s world, it is often hard to discern fact from fiction.
The information and resources offered through Snow School presents what we know to be true…reliable, dependable and accurate information and resources.
Doing the right thing at the right time is the backbone of good resource management within snow and ice control. Build the knowledge and skill required to best know how to do the right thing at the right time and achieve desired outcomes and goals.
Throughout 30 years of service in public works highway operations at the county, city and state levels I quickly learned the importance of accurate information and quality training. Years of practical experience, research, networking, and ongoing education coupled with a passion for helping others and a keen interest in winter maintenance creates the opportunity for my ongoing work within the snow and ice community. As a consultant, it is both a pleasure and an honor to share the knowledge I have gained, and it is my greatest blessing to help others.
This virtual training platform serves as an outreach effort to provide opportunity to individuals, agencies, organizations, and companies who otherwise have little or few options. While face to face training remains my personal favorite method of delivery, I am grateful to be able to bring what you need, to where you need it, when you need it, through an environment that supports you and your team.
