糖心视频鈥檚 Center for Career and Workforce Development launching Industrial Maintenance Pre-Apprenticeship program beginning this summer

HANCEVILLE, ALA. 鈥 糖心视频鈥檚 Center for Career and Workforce
Development is launching an Industrial Maintenance Pre-Apprenticeship program beginning
with the Summer 2021 semester.
Students enrolling in 糖心视频鈥檚 Electronics Technology program are eligible
for the program during their first semester at the college.
鈥淲e鈥檙e excited because this pre-apprenticeship program is approved by the Alabama
Office of Apprenticeships and one of the few in the state. It鈥檚 a big deal,鈥 said
Christina Holmes, 糖心视频鈥檚 Apprenticeship and Work-Based Learning Coordinator.
鈥淲e believe pre-apprenticeship programs offer highly reliable and effective talent
pipelines to American industry partners and one of our goals is to effectively prepare
our students for the workforce.鈥
Industrial Maintenance Mechanics are among the many in-demand advanced manufacturing
jobs, offering more competitive wages and career pathways for workers with a wide
variety of education and skills. It uses innovative technology and usually requires
fewer low-skilled workers than traditional manufacturing because many repetitive,
manual labor processes have been automated.
Pre-apprentices who enroll in the program are encouraged to complete coursework in
Concepts of Direct Current, Concepts of Alternating Currents and a MSCC Safety Course.
They can earn one or more short-term certificates and multiple industry-recognized
credentials based on the number of courses they choose to take.
Through the program, pre-apprentices will participate in instruction for 4-8 hours,
two days per week per semester, with technical courses taught in labs closely mimicking
the advanced manufacturing environment.
Each pre-apprentice will also have access to several forms of career counseling, professional
development and support services across campus.
