(WTC course 410105) Students study methods and materials used in construction to include footings and foundations, walls, floors, and roofs. Students will examine various insulation types and moisture and air control layers. Additionally, students will be introduced to construction documents. The safe use of the appropriate tools for each trade is covered.

(WTC course 31410333) This course introduces the theory, materials, methods, and procedures used to construct floor, wall, roof systems, and staircases for wood-framed structures. Students will build a full-size structure in the framing lab using the proper tools, layout techniques, and appropriate materials.

Independent reading and-or research under the guidance of an education department faculty member. Refer to Academic Policy section for independent study policy. May be repeated for credit. Independent study contract is required.

(WTC course 614106) Introduction of Architectural CAD commands and drafting techniques used to produce architectural drawings. Drawings are created using basic through advanced commands, settings, editing, dimensioning and plotting methods. Techniques include the creation of the building information model, families usage and sheet layouts.

(WTC course 664102) This course covers fundamental wiring concepts, relay ladder logic, sensors, timers, motor fundamentals, motor starters and Variable Frequency Drives. It also includes an introduction to PLC hardware/programming along with Touch Screen/HMI applications.

(WTC course 664107) In this course, learners are introduced to programming techniques for industrial robots. The learner examines teach pendant programming including I/O, routines, decision making, six frames of positional operation, and robot communication. Upon completion of the course, learners will be able to operate and program industrial robots commonly used in Industry 4.0.

(WTC course 31410329) In this course students will study various construction systems as they related to their drawings. Roof framing plans, stair construction from a section drawing, window schedules and catalogs, interior and exterior finishes, multifamily dwellings and code requirements for a residential structure will be referenced for related trade information.

(WTC course 480111) Students learn the details involved in the mechanical and electrical integration of a PV system. Topics include the mechanical and electrical specifications, product integration, racking system design capabilities and limits, system diagramming, configurations, safety, common design mistakes and solutions, installation techniques. This course will involve students in the installation of a photovoltaic system.

(WTC course 606137) Students will learn the basics of design intent of a product/process through sketching and other technical communication skills. The course will develop the student's skill in readying engineering drawings including detail, assembly, welding, piping and electrical. Sketching instruction will be enhanced by disassembling, measuring and drawing the parts that made up an assembly. Students are simultaneously introduced to the concepts, commands and techniques used to create two-dimensional drawings using AutoCAD software.

(WTC course 31442308) This course is designed to develop the student's skill in reading working drawings of weldments.
