CLAY, N.Y. — Time Warner Cable today formally opened its first training facility in the Northeast, located at 7890 Davis Road in the town of Clay and adjacent to Interstate 481.
The facility, which includes a two-story building resembling a small house, will serve as a training center for more than 500 technicians in the Central New York area, the company said.
The structure provides a “great opportunity” for Time Warner Cable to allow its technicians (techs) to conduct hands-on training, Steve Makowski, area vice president of operations for Central New York, said while speaking to reporters at the formal opening.
