Industrial Maintenance Training

The Industrial Maintenance program is designed to provide students with basic entry-level opportunities in the industrial maintenance field. It was developed utilizing industry-based skill standards and interview feedback from representatives of leading Caldwell County industries.

This course consists of three sessions: Levels 1, 2, and 3 for classroom and hands-on training.

All theory is reinforced by hands-on applications allowing students to explore the processes that will be the foundation for their career.

Advanced Industrial Maintenance (Level 3): Continues building upon the skills learned in the Introduction and Intermediate Industrial Maintenance courses. This course is designed to prepare students for entry-level employment as a multi-skilled maintenance technician, where they will be responsible for assembling, installing, maintaining and repairing machinery used in the manufacturing or industrial environment.
