Career Pathway—Engineering, Manufacturing, and Industrial Technology
The Industrial Trades represents the broad category of skilled operators and maintenance persons working in industry and service shops. Courses are held at the Regional Manufacturing Technology Center (RMTC), 405 Hill Brady Road, Battle Creek.
Kellogg Community College has developed a delivery system for these areas that individualizes instruction, is competency based, and features flexible scheduling to meet the needs of students and industry. Persons may enroll at any time during the year and may be given credit for previously learned skills. To enroll, contact the Industrial Trades office at the RMTC, (269) 965-4137.
Credits earned in the Industrial Trades programs can lead to a certificate and may also be applied toward an Associate in Applied Science.
Certificate Programs
Each of the eleven major industrial areas is divided into instructional units. Each unit is subdivided into modules that develop a specific skill. The time required for mastery of a module(s) or a unit(s) is estimated in contact hours. Twenty-four contact hours equate to one credit hour.
