The Electrical Technology certificate provides students with the fundamental knowledge and skills needed within the electrical field. Residential, commercial construction, and maintenance applications and presented. Curricular coursework covers basic electrical theory, residential and commercial wiring, safety, the National Electrical Code, and blueprint reading. Students are exposed to the fundamentals of electrical systems through hands-on laboratory exercises that involve mock wiring of commercial and residential systems. This certificate may be completed at the Harrisburg and York campuses through on-campus/in-person instruction
The Welding Applications Level 2II Certificate and the AAS consist of the same welding courses. The only difference between them is the AAS requires a small amount of additional academic coursework that the certificate does not require. Upon completion, students should possess the skills and knowledge for successful careers in welding. The welding portion of both awards prepares students to successfully apply technical knowledge and skills in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) to join or cut metal surfaces. Students are able to choose from three different emphasis: Multiple Welding Process, Pipe Welding and Fitting, or Fabrication.
The Career Studies Certificate in Manufacturing Technician prepares students for various manufacturing jobs requiring advanced technical and operator skills as well as knowledge of modern advanced manufacturing practices.Program Outcomes: Graduates of this program will demonstrate:Knowledge of how modern manufacturers use people, technologies & materials to make highly engineered products at a competitive cost.Ability to communicate manufacturing concepts and ideas effectively.Knowledge of basic automation and how technology is used by manufacturers in a modern factory.Use of Lean Manufacturing in a manufacturing environment.Application of skills learned in social, business and work ethics required by modern manufacturing.Industry Certifications: National Career Readiness Certification (NCRC), Bennett Mechanical Score, OSHA 10, Manufacturing Specialist (MS) from Manufacturing Skills Institute.
Job Corps’ Welding training program teaches students skills like joining metals using a variety of techniques and processes, understanding and following safety procedures including properly using safety equipment, and identifying and explaining the composition and classification of metals, and designing and building a fixture for assembling simple parts. These skills prepare students for a career working in a variety of jobs for manufacturing companies, construction companies, trade shops, shipbuilders or repair shops. Students should also consider pursuing Advanced Manufacturing Production Technician, Advanced Machinist and other Advanced Training programs at Job Corps as a part of their career pathway. Students who complete Welding training at Job Corps can earn nationally recognized credentials from the American Welding Society (AWS) and the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS).
In this program, students will complete Levels I and II ASNT competencies for six NDT methods including liquid penetrant, ultrasonic, eddy current, visual, radiography, and magnetic particle inspection. In addition, the students will have hands-on experience in both conventional and composite aerospace assembly methods which will allow them to apply NDT techniques to the aviation industry.
Job Corps’ OTP Advanced Manufacturing training program connects Job Corps students with other local training providers like technical or community colleges, trade schools or employers to provide specialized education and training services. Students learn skills like reading and understanding schematics and blueprints, positioning or aligning components and parts either manually or with hoists, using hand tools or machines to assemble parts, conducting quality control checks, and describing the commonalities and differences of the alternating current and direct current (AC/DC) systems (e.g., wire color codes in both). These skills prepare students for a career in manufacturing, production engineering and machine shops. Students who complete Advanced Manufacturing training at Job Corps can earn nationally recognized credentials from the American Welding Society (AWS) and the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS).
Prepares students for the modern manufacturing environment and engages them to discover skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the high tech, advanced manufacturing workplace. Students will also learn about supervisory techniques, employment strategies, and ways to solve problems in a manufacturing environment.
