Celebrating the Next Generation of Building Automation Talent: Stacks+Joules Cohort 13

On Friday, March 20, TEC proudly attended the Stacks+Joules Cohort 13 Talent Showcase, celebrating the newest graduates of the S+J Building Automation Training Program.

Events like this are inspiring because they showcase the importance of investing in early-career talent and fostering the future of the building automation industry. At TEC, we’ve seen firsthand how such investment pays off: many S+J graduates have gone on to become valued members of our team, contributing fresh ideas, technical expertise, and adaptability.

The showcase gave attendees an opportunity to experience the impressive skills graduates have developed, including:

• • • • Python-driven lighting applications
      • Leak detection system wiring
      • Niagara framework and control panel programming
      • HVAC systems using air conditioning and heat pump trainers
      • Distech building controls

The demonstrations highlighted not only technical proficiency but also confidence, creativity, and problem-solving skills. It’s clear that the next generation of BAS professionals is already making an impact.

TEC is proud to support initiatives like Stacks+Joules, which create pathways into the industry, strengthen technical expertise, and open doors for emerging talent. Engaging with Cohort 13 reinforced our commitment to mentorship, continuous learning, and long-term industry growth.

Congratulations to this talented group of graduates! We’re excited to see how their skills and passion will shape the future of building automation.
