The Technical Studies degree program recognizes that learning can occur in a variety of forums and that this learning may be equivalent to college-level instruction. After assessment of the certified union apprenticeship, corporate, industrial or military training program, the faculty assessor will determine the number of technical credits to be awarded. The remaining program includes the College’s general education requirements, advanced technical credits and career related electives (technical concentration).
This course will teach the basics of Computer Numeric Control (CNC) programming for 3-axis mill applications. Students will learn to write CNC programs using G&M code, tool-pathing, canned cycles, and troubleshooting. Course content will reinforce concepts of safety, shop math, and tooling usage. Students will employ these skills in a machine shop environment.
Our Instrumentation, Electrical & Controls Fundamentals (IE&C) certificate program in Electrical/Electronic Controls leverages the pre-requisite training gained in the 1st year certificate and adds industrial level concepts for a complete understanding of how electricity keeps our manufacturing processes working. The advanced 2nd year certificate prepares the student for above entry-level employment as an Automation Technician capable of working in any industry position using instrumentation and automation to control processes. Through concentrated classroom instruction and hands-on laboratory work, the student learns about industrial poly- phase equipment, how to create and install control panels, programmable controls and process instrumentation used in a variety of commercial and industrial manufacturing plants throughout the globe. Come learn the Automation Industry standards at TJC’s state-of-the-art facilities. Marketable skills for this award include: critical thinking, detail-oriented, problem solving and technical skills. All new students are required to attend electrical/electronic controls orientation.

This program leads to an associate in applied science degree with a specialization in CAD Engineering Technology. Program graduates are encouraged to transfer to one of OCC’s four-year university partners and continue their education in Engineering Technology; however, graduates are prepared for occupations and careers in engineering and manufacturing industries. Rapid Prototyping and co-op opportunities enhance their learning experience.The CAD Engineering option focuses on design with an emphasis on concepts and applications of CAD Engineering Technologies. CAE covers subjects such as: the applications and principles of kinematics in design, concepts and techniques of finite element modeling for stress analysis / non-destructive testing, techniques and applications of solid modeling, and CNC tool path generation for CAD models.
The Industrial Automation certificate provides upgrading of skills for those presently employed in industry as automation, instrument, and electrical technicians. In addition, the certificate is an excellent way to build basic skills for those who want to enter these fields. The curriculum is based on the skills required to troubleshoot and maintain PLC, Instrumentation, and Data Acquisition systems. Students are encouraged to pursue the Control System Technician Associate exam (CST) upon completion of this certificate. High school graduate reading and writing skills are expected, as development of technical reports and use of technical manuals are required in these courses. Math skills should include practical knowledge of algebra, basic trigonometry and geometry.Credits earned may be applied toward the Electrical Engineering Technology (A.A.S.) degree.Courses in each level (Foundation, Core and Advanced Track) must be completed prior to advancing to the next level. Where more than one course is offered within a level, courses may be taken in any sequence.
This career path prepares students for employment in the broad field of drafting with opportunities in both government and industry. Training emphasizes the development of computer- aided design and drafting skills. Graduates typically obtain drafting and technical illustration jobs in the architectural, civil, construction, electrical, or mechanical field.Students can earn only one General Technology degree in a single career path.
This program teaches the principles of computer-aided drafting and design through a hands-on curriculum that reflects current industry standards. Students gain expertise designing in AutoCAD and Inventor software and using 3-D printing to visualize and validate designs
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).
Focus is on gas and electric heating; cooling fundamentals, components, and installation; heat pumps; general service; Environmental Protection Agency certification, troubleshooting and job search techniques.
