The AC/DC course will meet for a total of 30 hours. The cost will be $500 per student. We plan to offer three other related courses: Industrial Mechanics/Pneumatics, Industrial Hydraulics, and PLCs. Each course will follow a similar, consecutive schedule. Students completing all four courses will be awarded a microcredential in Industrial Maintenance. Students may join the course rotation at the start of any new class, about every three months. That would allow them to complete all four courses in about one year.
