Industrial Technology (Certificate)

Program Overview

industrial technology students

Johnson College’s one-year academic certificate Industrial Technology program prepares graduates as industrial maintenance technicians who keep machines in working order by detecting and correcting errors before the machine or the products it produces are damaged. After diagnosing a problem, the industrial machinery mechanic may take the equipment apart to repair or replace the necessary parts. Once a repair is made, industrial mechanics test a machine to ensure that it is operating correctly.
