CAD designers use computer-aided drafting software to create detailed drawings and working plans for the process piping design, mechanical design, and architecture design industries. It is from these CAD drawings that the conceptualization of an idea or design is transformed into a produced product. The Engineering Design Technology: Computer-Aided Drafting and Design Certificate provides students the opportunity to study and learn 2D and 3D design, and solid modeling methods and standards used in the production of drawings for applications such as mechanical, architectural, machine, and/or process piping design. After successful completion of the one-year program, the student receives the Engineering Design Technology: Computer-Aided Drafting and Design Certificate of Proficiency, which prepares graduates to enter the workforce with a solid, technical CAD background. Graduates, however, are also encouraged to consider the opportunity to complete two more semesters of CAD training to earn the Associate of Applied Science Degree in Engineering Design Technology. Marketable skills for this award include: interpersonal skills, computer skills + typing, problem solving, and technical skills.

Students in Tooling and Manufacturing Technology will learn both the soft skills and technical skills needed to be a successful technician. Soft skills include teamwork, problem solving, quality principles and communication skills. Technical skills (based on National Skill Standards) include manufacturing principles, metallurgy, welding, quality assurance, machine shop, CNC programming, and technical mathematics. Graduates of this certificate program are prepared to become certified skilled tradespeople. These positions often pave the way for careers in manufacturing, tool and die, mold making, and precision machining. This program offers the following features: Challenge exams are available for most courses. Advanced-standing credits are available for many high school students. Work experience can be gained through co-op classes. Enrollment may be part-time or full-time, days or nights.

Job Corps’ Heavy Construction Equipment Mechanic, Pre-Apprenticeship training program teaches students skills needed to work with large machines like inspecting, repairing and replacing defective or worn parts such as bearings, pistons and gears, performing scheduled maintenance to diagnose and identify malfunctions, using computerized tools and equipment to address issues, and testing major components such as engines, hydraulic systems and electrical systems. This program specifically prepares students for a Registered Apprenticeship after graduation. Students who complete an Automotive and Machine Repair training area can earn nationally recognized credentials from organizations like the National Institute of Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF), and the United Automobile Workers (UAW).

Computer Aided Design (CAD) has replaced the manual drafting process and allows the three-dimensional design of parts and components in industries that include automotive, steel, plastics, and more. The designs that CAD operators produce are used to control automated machines through CAM (computer-aided machining), so it is an essential skill for the manufacturing process. While many people believe that all manufacturing has moved offshore, Ohio's manufacturing industry -particularly in the CAD/CAM space -is still alive and well. In fact, it offers excellent job opportunities for skilled CAD operators.The Associate of Applied Science in Manufacturing Engineering Technology -Mechanical Design program builds on the Computer-Aided Operator One-Year Certificate. It is designed to provide you with the knowledge and practical skills necessary to understand the Computer Aided Machining (CAM) process and operate industry-standard Computer Aided Design (CAD) software. It covers fundamental knowledge in the manufacturing process and problem-solving as well as hands-on experience with modern equipment. You'll be job-ready as an entry-level mechanical drafter/designer or CAD operator.
