Here are a few of the courses you can take in the Mechanical Maintenance program.
Basic Pneumatics
This course exposes the student to the theories and basic components of pneumatics. Basic component construction and operation is explored. The theory of function is supplemented by hands on disassembly and assembly of actual industrial components. The course is presented in the individual study mode to allow the students flexibility in scheduling their time.
Mechanical Concepts
This course is designed to give the student a basic understanding of the mechanical concepts that are found on industrial equipment. Since all industrial machinery is equipped with some type of mechanical drive, a firm understanding of these drives is necessary for the industrial mechanic. Cleanliness and safe working habits will also be emphasized.
Manufacturing Prints & Networks
This course prepares students to create and interpret technical documents. Identifying symbols in electrical, networking/Internet of Things (IoT), piping, hydraulic, pneumatic, HVAC and sketching diagrams is addressed. Students create job related written documents (such as work orders and resumes) to meet the needs of the industry.

Apply NowI applied for a "Weekend Warehouse Work" job. They saw I was attending CVTC that semester for Maintenance and interviewed and offered me a job for that position. Allowed me to work strictly weekends while in school and gave me a raise upon graduation. Thank you CVTC for all that you do!
