This program is designed to give the participant a general overview of the components that make up a signalized intersection, and how those components are put together to form a fully functional traffic signal installation. Safety while working in close proximity to vehicular traffic,  conductors, signals, hardware and the traffic controller are just some of the topics that will be discussed. In-class instruction and demonstrations as well as practical lab assignments will give the participant a greater understanding of this unique area of our electrical industry.

Knowledge of sensors and PLC’s is essential for designing and maintaining process lines and production equipment on the plant floor. Sensors act as the eyes, ears and touch for programmable logic controllers. This course explores all five (5) common sensing technologies such as photoelectric, inductive, capacitive, and ultrasonic and limit switch. Additionally, students will learn to use a software interface to program Siemens LOGO! programmable logic controllers. This course is comprised of a series of lectures and hands-on labs as well as a final ‘real-world’ PLC programming…

Can you read a discrete component electronic schematic? Could you design a feedback regulated linear power supply? If not, then come out and take part in this exciting new course. This hands-on, experiment-oriented course begins with the basics and progresses to advanced topics with minimal math emphasis. This course is geared to enable individuals to continue building enhanced electronic circuits and develop their design know-how while working at a casual pace. Students will learn about active filters, multistage power amplifiers,…
