Wake Tech is closed Wednesday in observance of Veterans Day. Prospective students can still apply online, and current students can register for Spring semester classes. Classes resume and offices will reopen Thursday.
Core course work for each 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 heavy equipment. Advancement levels depend on the training completed, knowledge and ability levels, work performance and ethics.
