Precision Machining is a comprehensive 6-month trades course designed to prepare students for careers in the machining industry. The curriculum covers essential skills including blueprint reading, precision measurement, basic and advanced manual machining, CNC programming and operation using G&M code, and CAD/CAM design with Fusion 360.The program emphasizes both technical proficiency and workplace readiness, helping students develop the interpersonal skills necessary for professional success. Students earn three industry-recognized credentials, along with a Precision Machining Certificate of Completion from C-TEC.With 80% of the training delivered through hands-on experience, students gain practical, real-world skills. Additionally, we support and encourage motivated individuals to pursue further certifications during or after the course to enhance their career opportunities.
This certificate teaches beginning and intermediate welding students the principles and practices of shielded metal arc welding in preparation for entry into the welding fields of construction, fabrication and maintenance.
An Occupational Skills Award (OSA) is the most basic sequence of courses that will prepare students for employment. Students are not able to declare an OSA as a major, or pursue one as an end goal. However, almost all OSAs are built into other certificates and/or majors, and they will be automatically awarded to students as they complete coursework in those certificates and/or majors.
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).
The Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Technology curriculum provides the basic knowledge to develop skills necessary to work with residential and light commercial systems. Topics include mechanical refrigeration, heating and cooling theory, electricity, controls, and safety. The diploma program covers air conditioning, furnaces, heat pumps, tools, and instruments. In addition, the AAS degree covers residential building codes, residential system sizing, and advanced comfort systems. Diploma graduates should be able to assist in the start-up, preventive maintenance, service, repair, and/or installation of residential and light commercial systems. AAS degree graduates should be able to demonstrate an understanding of system selection and balance and advanced systems.

LCCC's mechatronics program is an exciting, job-focused program that will give you an understanding of how MEMS are designed and fabricated and prepare you to work as an entry-level technician. We've partnered with 80 different Northeast Ohio microelectronics companies who looking for trained workers to ensure that our classes teach you exactly what they want you to know on the job.Building on the micro electromechanical systems one-year certificate program, this coursework will give you hands-on experience and training working at the operator level in a class-10,000 cleanroom located on college grounds. You'll get to work with materials, equipment, protocols, and processes related to the microelectronics industry and learn theory of MEMS design, sensor and microcircuit operation, material and size constraints, microelectronic packaging, printed circuit design, manufacturing, and project management.You may choose to continue your education by applying the credits earned in this program to the bachelor of applied science in MEMS.
The Welding Technology diploma program prepares students with the knowledge and skills needed for entry-level employment in the welding industry. Emphasis is placed on learning OSHA safety practices for industrial environments and developing basic skills in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), Oxy-Fuel Cutting/Welding/Brazing (OFCWB), Plasma Cutting (PAC), Air Carbon Arc (CAC-A) Gouging and welding symbol interpretation. The diploma may be completed at the Harrisburg and York campuses through on-campus/in-person instruction.
This advanced training teaches you how to study the cumulative effect of part tolerances in order to reduce product costs. You'll learn how to establish part tolerances, perform 2-D analyses of designs, use geometric tolerances in stack ups, and much more. Numerous assemblies will be studied. A workshop to apply tolerance stack-up analysis techniques to student supplied problems may be included.
This program covers blueprint reading, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), manufacturing process planning, CAD/CAM Solid Part Modeling and Numerical Control (N/C) Programming, precision machining (both manual and CNC machines) and inspection, shop math, and quality control. Knowledge is acquired and skills are developed through textbook, online curriculum, and hands-on lab assignments. Lab work includes the use of CAD/CAM software and state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment to produce machined parts from raw metal stock, according to blueprint specifications.
This program prepares students for roles as CNC tool programmers, operators, setters, as well as tool and die setters. It is suitable for career changers, high school graduates, general education diploma holders, and machining workers looking to enhance their careers.
