This selective associate degree program will prepare students for a career in Surgical Technology\. Surgical Technologists are an integral part of the operating room team\. They prepare sterile instruments and supplies needed for procedures\. The Surgical Technologist remains throughout the surgery passing the necessary items needed\. \
\Applications to the Surgical Technology program are due February 28\
\This one\-year online \(30 week\) Certificate provides students with specialized technical knowledge in industrial maintenance\. This program is designed as a pathway to obtain an Apprentice status when sponsored by a New Jersey based company\. This program is credit generating; therefore, Associates degrees of programs related to the discipline may be inclined to consider completion of these courses for transfer\. Upon completion, students can continue to pursue a degree in CIM\.AAS or TES\.AAS\.\
\This program prepares individuals to apply technical knowledge and skills to repair and maintain industrial machinery and equipment such as cranes, pumps, engines and motors, pneumatic tools, conveyor systems, and production machinery as a maintenance technician\.\
\\Students must register through the Workforce Development divisions registration process\.\\
\The Industrial Controls: Programmable Logic Controller \(PLC\) Certificate of Achievement is a course of study designed to quickly train new learners and/or incumbent electrical mechanics in the skills necessary to troubleshoot and program the PLCs used in batch and/or discrete automation\. A PLC is a real\-time industrially\-hardened computer running a specialized Operating System which is typically programmed via the Relay Ladder Logic \(RLL\) programming language\. PLCs are used to control high\-speed factory automation equipment and manufacturing processes used in packaging, sorting, chemical processing, amusement parks, textiles, animatronics, conveyor belts, mining, petrochemical, and other manufacturing enterprises to name a few\.\
\The PLC certificate includes courses that will investigate both discrete and analog sensors, pneumatic directional control valves, AC and DC motors, and single\-phase and three\-phase power\. The PLC used will be the Allen Bradley SLC 500 and the CompactLogix 5000\-scale processor running RSLogix and Studio 5000 software\. No special skills are required, however prior industrial electrical experience will prove beneficial to the student\.\
\The Precision Machining Technology Certificate is a series of courses with a concentration in the skill sets required to be a machinist\. The four course series is designed to follow the National Institute for Metalworking Skills Machinist Level I credential\. Conventional and CNC mill and lathe concepts are covered\. Students who successfully complete this certificate program should be successful in a manufacturing environment\.\
\The Computer Aided Manufacturing \(CAM\) Certificate of Achievement consists of technical courses geared toward the rapid completion of a core set of Computer Numerical Control \(CNC\) and CAM skills\. The student will acquire the CNC set\-up and programming competencies that are required to support the advanced metalworking industry\. The student will complete several hands\-on, machining programming exercises using our authentic, industrial\-sized CNC mills and lathes\. Current laboratory equipment includes Bridgeport VMCs and HAAS slant bed lathes in addition to our new HAAS office lathe and mill small capacity CNC machines\. The current programming environment includes the latest versions of MasterCAM and SolidWorks applications\.\
