""If you look up what a low-voltage technician does, all they really do is pull cable. The only difference is they're going to be pulling fiber inside of a building and hooking it up to racks and switches and routers.""
""The demand for data center construction is increasing rapidly, and with an aging workforce, the need for trained low-voltage technicians is more critical than ever.""
""Meta's LevelUp Fiber Technician Pathway will be a free, four-week training program, providing participants with the opportunity to interview for jobs at Meta's data center construction sites.""

The aging workforce and high retirement rates exacerbate the shortage, making training programs crucial for meeting industry demands.
