Impact Stories
SETTON PISTACHIO
Bringing Leadership and Industrial Training to Remote Areas
Setton Pistachio, a family-owned and operated pistachio company located in rural California, encountered difficulties in providing training to their employees due to their remote location and the potential productivity loss caused by sending staff off-site.
SJVC provided a solution by offering on-site training utilizing existing curriculum and instructors. Over the course of 2018 and 2019, 33 Setton employees were selected to receive training in areas such as Industrial Electricity, Power Transmission, and Programmable Logic Controllers for mechanics, technicians, and electricians. Managers and supervisors also received training in Principles of Management, with a focus on developing skills such as problem-solving and effective communication.
Setton Pistachio was able to provide training to its employees without sacrificing productivity by having the flexibility of customized on-site training.
