Industrial Trades

Do you like designing and building? Careers in the Industrial Trades pathways use technologies to design, develop, install, and maintain physical systems such as buildings, structures, machines and equipment.

Manufacturing employers are desperate for skilled workers. Unlike many other entry-level employment opportunities, manufacturing employers continue to offer on-the-job training, apprenticeships, and payment for continued education and career advancement.

Maintenance Welder

The Maintenance Welder Career Pathway Certificate of Completion will prepare the student for basic maintenance and repair welding on production and manufacturing equipment, lines, and in facilities.

Control Systems Operator

The Control Systems Operator certificate prepares students to work as an entry level operator on a manufacturing line in a variety of automated electro-mechanical, product assembly, process control or product distribution industries that use programmable controls and instrumentation. The student will learn how to set-up, operate, monitor, and control production equipment, improve manufacturing processes and schedule to meet customer requirements, and efficiently and safely manage raw materials/consumables.

Aviation Safety Management Systems

The Aviation Safety Management Systems CPCC is designed for students wishing to enter the workforce by providing aviation related training. As well as preparing the student for the first step to becoming a professional fixed-wing or helicopter pilot, the successful completion of the ASMS certificate provides training for students who wish to seek work at airports in ground support, aircraft servicing and maintenance, or other entry level aviation jobs.  Students employed by Federal Government agencies, may meet the standards for certification as a Federal Aviation Safety Officer by completing the Pathway Certificate.
