Wake Tech is closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Prospective students can still apply online, and current students can register for 12- and eight-week Spring semester courses. The college will reopen Tuesday morning.
The Electrical Systems Technology curriculum is designed to provide training for persons interested in the installation and maintenance of electrical systems found in residential, commercial, and industrial facilities.
Training, most of which is hands-on, will include such topics as AC/DC theory, basic wiring practices, programmable logic controllers, industrial motor controls, the National Electrical Code and other subjects as local needs require.
Diploma graduates should qualify for a variety of jobs as a trainee or apprentice assisting in the layout, installation and maintenance of electrical or electronic systems.
