Prerequisite: NCCER Core (TIO0650)

Welding is one of the hottest careers! This course provides the knowledge and skills needed to become an entry-level welder. Course covers SMAW bead and fillet welds, joint fit-up, and groove and open V-groove welds. Also learn how to effectively plasma cut and increase weld quality.

Prerequisite: NCCER Welding Level 1(TIO0650)

Welding is one of the hottest careers! This course provides the knowledge and skills needed to become an entry-level welder. Course covers SMAW bead and fillet welds, joint fit-up, and groove and open V-groove welds. Also learn how to effectively plasma cut and increase weld quality.

Any person that services motor vehicle air conditioning (MVAC) must be certified. This EPA Section 609 technician training is a theory and knowledge-based class to prepare for the certification test. This course does not cover the skills necessary to diagnose problems or make repairs in motor vehicle air conditioners. Rather, this training will prepare the technicians in the legal regulations, how to properly handle, recover and recycle refrigerants, and why it must be done to protect the stratospheric ozone layer. Test for certification is included in the course.

Join us and learn about the new and enhanced tools that make AutoCAD a designer's dream. Learn to use Autodesk AutoCAD software, the industry standard for computerized drafting. Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to create a basic 2D drawing using drawing and editing tools, organize drawing objects on layers, add text and basic dimensions, and prepare to plot. 

Prerequisite: AutoCAD Introduction or equivalent knowledge

Increase your AutoCAD skills by learning to use efficiency tools including grips and advanced object selection; drawing with complex objects including polylines, regions and multilines; defining blocks and attributes; using external reference files and image files; using layouts and advanced plotting features.

Learn to use Autodesk Revit, a fully parametric architectural 3D design software. By using Autodesk Revit, you will learn to design the same way the professionals do. When you change one view using a parametric program the other views are changed automatically to reflect your change. For example, if a door is deleted in the door schedule, that door is automatically deleted from the floor plan and elevations. This state-of-the-art software, also called Building Information Modeling, truly takes architectural computer design beyond being a high tech pencil. This course teaches you to create a 3-dimensional model of a residence, and print the floor plan and elevations of the building.

Prerequisite: Revit Architectural Introduction or equivalent knowledge

Intermediate Revit teaches how to automate creation of schedules and sections by taking advantage of the parametric features. You will learn how Revit's building information model prevents errors in architectural drawings. With Revit it is almost impossible to have a miss-reference detail tag. The course teaches creation and printing of photo realistic renderings of the model, and how to create and print a whole set of drawings.

Prerequisite: NCCER Level 1

Expand on your NCCER Level 1 Welding credential. Course covers GMAW, GTAW, FCAW fillet, joint fit-up, groove and open V-groove welds. Upon successful completion of this course students will receive a NCCER Welding Level 2 credential.

This is for payment of OSHA 10 card.
