Explore automotive, manufacturing careers April 12 at Nicolet College
"Both of these career sectors are experiencing a shortage of workers and, as such, people with these sought-after skills are in quite high demand," Nicolet Admissions representative Dwight Webb said in a press release announcing the event.
The event for manufacturing sector jobs will be held in the Birchwoods Center and automotive will be in the Automotive Lab located on the lower floor of the White Pine Center. Interested individuals will be able to explore the facilities and talk with instructors and employers about virtually any aspects of careers in these fields.
Nicolet's Manufacturing program offers college credentials in five different areas, which include Electromechanical, Industrial Mechanical, Welding, Metal Fabrication, and Forestry Equipment. The college's Automotive program offers two one-year technical diplomas, which include Automotive Service Technician and Automotive Technician.
The college also offers these programs in the highly-flexible Competency-Based Education, or CBE, format. Under this structure students complete a combination online instruction and hands-on lab work in a flexible open lab setting with instructors on site.
"Each program is also broken into a series of skill competencies," Webb explained. "When students complete one competency, they then move on to the next, and so on until they earn their college credential. The curriculum is the same as in the old, traditional format, and is just as challenging, only now it's in the flexible CBE format where students complete the work at times that are best for them."
For more information, contact Webb at 715-365-4470 or at [email protected]. Individuals attending the event are asked to pre-register at nicoletcollege.tfaforms.net/456.
