Program Proposal Attributes
- Certificate of Achievement: 8 to fewer than 16 semester (or 12 to fewer than 24 quarter) units (B)
The Residential Electrical Installer Certificate of Achievement seeks to open an educational pathway for
technical students into the construction industry. This award intends to provide an alternative to
openings in manufacturing, maintenance, and automation. The Residential Electrical Installer Certificate
of Achievement is the first stage of a nested electrical program centered around the construction
industry. As such, this program attempts to accomplish the strategic goal of harmonizing all of Modesto
Junior College’s electrical technology specialized programs with the vision and goals of the Guided
Pathways project (as defined by the California Community Colleges Chancellor Office.) Students who
accomplish this level of technical education will improve their employability value and will find an
incentive to further their technical education in the construction field.
