Wake Tech is closed Monday for the Labor Day holiday. Prospective students can still apply online, and current students can register for mini-mester courses. All classes will resume and offices will reopen Tuesday morning.
Core coursework for the diploma program includes the theory of operations, troubleshooting techniques and repair procedures for engines, transmissions, fuel, electronics, electrical and hydraulics systems. Other related courses, along with a few general education courses, are also required.
Graduates should qualify for entry-level employment opportunities at businesses that repair construction equipment. Entry and advancement levels depend on the training completed, knowledge and ability levels, work performance and ethics.
