Catalog Description

 The Manufacturing Maintenance Technician certificate prepares students for careers in the manufacturing industry that are essential for keeping manufacturing facilities productive. These careers involve the set-up,preventative maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of a wide-range of industrial machinery. Students will learn hands-on skills in fabrication,machining, and welding through project-based lessons. Theoretical content in mechanics, fluid power, electronics, robotics, programming, and precision measurement will be reinforced with laboratory interactions using state-of-the-art industrial machinery. Students will specialize by selecting elective courses that emphasize curriculum in a variety of technologies.

Enrollment Completer Projections

We project that this certificate will produce 10 to 20 completers per year.

Program Goal

Create a flexible educational pathway aligned with Manufacturing Technology that allows students to gain skills and be employable in one year.

Provide local industry with a workforce that has specific skills tailored to niche manufacturing.

Offer a credential that addresses targeted industrial concepts so that students will rapidly become eligible for occupations such as Helpers-Installation,Maintenance & Repair Workers (49-9098.00), Maintenance and Repair Workers, General (49-9071.00), Industrial Machinery Mechanics (49-9041.00), Millwrights (49-9044.00), and Maintenance Workers, Machinery (49-9043.00).    

Enhance our Manufacturing Technology Program to include additional areas of study such as Industrial Systems Technology and Maintenance (0945.00) and Industrial Mechanics and Maintenance Technology (47.0303).
