1 Electrician’s Preparation Certificate

College of DuPage (COD) will establish the Electrician’s Preparation Certificate program to train technicians in the field of electricity and electrical standards related to the applications in the field of electrical technology such as residential and plant wiring and electrical maintenance. Certificate provides knowledge, skills, and competencies to students for work in the area of residential, commercial, and industrial wiring. National Electric Code, residential, commercial and industrial wiring are studied.

This certificate does not provide license or certification to perform electrical work.

Program requirements include five courses, totaling 13 credit hours, allowing students the ability to complete the training in one 16 week semester. Employment of electricians should increase 7 percent between 2006 and 2016, about as fast as the average occupations.

( http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos206.htm#projections_data). Also, stimulus package allocates $4.5 billion for green jobs, [1], “which could create jobs for electricians, installers, and engineers.” Several reports cite potential for jobs, where electricians are quoted as an occupation with growth [2]. Courses will be conducted in the new, state-of-the-art COD Technology Education Center. Targeted students will include unemployed or underemployed individuals with interest in engineering or related technical fields, students seeking retraining, or that requiring skill diversification in an existing business. Overall employment of electrical technicians is expected to grow as the population ages and specialist in the field retire.
