ObjectivesOur Diesel & Industrial Technology program provides the knowledge and skills you need to become a successful entry-level diesel truck and industrial equipment technician.
Course descriptionManufacturers and dealerships across the country are always looking for technicians who know diesel engines and know how to fix diesel trucks, forklifts, construction equipment, and transportation refrigeration systems.
You’ll learn how diesel truck engines work. You’ll get hands-on training on the biggest and most powerful equipment and engines—Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, International Truck, and others. You’ll work on it all, from preventive maintenance to computer controls and high-tech electronics including air brakes, hydraulics, and transport refrigeration. And you’ll learn essential business skills that will put you on the path to success.
Plus, you can add electives to the Diesel & Industrial Technology program like the 12-week Cummins elective program, 12-week Daimler Trucks Finish First Elective program or the 6-week International Technician Education Program (ITEP) for example. By adding these to the core program you could potentially increase your skills and your marketability. You can also combine the core program with the Automotive Technology program. You can add Ford Accelerated Credential Training (FACT), Nissan Automotive Technician Training (NATT), BMW Fast Track, or Toyota Professional Automotive Training (TPAT) elective programs. You can even leave out the industrial part and combine Diesel and Automotive Technology.
No matter which program you choose, you’ll get the skills you need and the career opportunities you’re looking for.
