This program is designed to prepare you for the many career <strong>opportunities</strong><br />
in the electrical industry. A thorough treatment of DC, AC, and<br />
polyphase electric circuits and solid state power devices minimizes the<br />
possibility of technological obsolescence. Motor controls and programmable<br />
controllers let you design and build control systems. The electrical<br />
installation courses use the latest techniques according to the National<br />
Electrical Code. The electrical code and fire alarm classes are especially<br />
useful as preparation for state license and NICET certification examinations.<br />
This program is excellent for electricians, engineers, firefigthers,<br />
building department inspectors, and maintenance personnel. This program<br />
uses an extensive lab environment for important hands-on experience<br />
in electrical classes. Please see a construction ttechnology advisor<br />
