Students who complete the Painting, Pre-Apprentice training program can earn industry-recognized credentials from organizations such as the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) and certifications in construction safety from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
The Industrial Systems Technology curriculum is designed to prepare or upgrade individuals to safely service, maintain, repair, or install equipment. Instruction includes theory and skill training needed for inspecting, testing, troubleshooting, and diagnosing industrial systems.Students will learn multi-craft technical skills in print reading, mechanical systems maintenance, electricity, hydraulics/pneumatics, welding, machining or fabrication, and includes various diagnostic and repair procedures. Practical application in these industrial systems will be emphasized and additional advanced coursework may be offered.Upon completion of this curriculum, graduates should be able to individually, or with a team, safely install, inspect, diagnose, repair, and maintain industrial process and support equipment. Students will also be encouraged to develop their skills as life-long learners.
This course provides a comprehensive, hands-on introduction to reading electrical prints and wiring control cabinets. Students will gain practical experience by assembling a complete, functional control cabinet featuring an Allen Bradley PLC and PanelView HMI with ethernet communication. The curriculum covers all aspects of panel-building, including wire termination, wire sizing, wire color coding, standard industrial connector forms and nomenclature, raceway utilization, and more. Emphasis is placed on safety, precision, and adherence to industry standards. The primary objective of this course is to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to interpret electrical prints and proficiently wire control cabinets. Students will learn to assemble a control system from start to finish, understand and apply various wiring techniques, and ensure all work meets professional standards. The course aims to enhance students’ technical skills in wire preparation, electrical bonding, and the use of hand tools, while also providing a strong foundation in electrical theory and print reading.
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).
