This credential offers career technical training for technician roles across the construction industry. Courses address building design, drawing and graphics, history, technical communication, codes, construction methods and structural design, with growing use of computer tools such as Rhino and Revit.
The program is assembled from 33 units of coursework, and every listed requirement has to be finished. Students need a C or P, or better, in each required class before the certificate is granted. It sits within the college's career-focused offerings and can be combined with related degrees and certificates.
