AAS, DIPLOMA
The Construction Technology diploma will provide students with a broad background in foundational construction industry skills such as safety practices; use of hand and power tools; reading construction documents (i.e. drawings, specifications); project management; and basic electrical, carpentry, plumbing, HVAC, machining, and welding skills. Small community-based projects will provide the opportunity to apply these skills. Students will be introduced to several construction careers through site visits and subject matter expert guest lectures to assist in choosing the right career path. The four primary trades highlighted in this program include carpentry, electrical, plumbing, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC).
Please note, PTCC will not be accepting new students into the Construction Technology program for the upcoming 2024 fall semester. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily suspend admissions to this program.
