Program Description:
Because of Wireless Telecommunication Technology we
carry our cell phones and communicate while we walk down the street. We
listen to baseball or football games occurring on the other side of the
continent. A war occurring elsewhere on the planet is broadcast into our
homes. A plumber is paged because a hot water heater has broken and the
basement is being flooded. We open our car and garage doors by remote
control.
The advent of wireless technology has had a
profound impact on the way we live. It is an ever-changing technology
utilized in industries including communications, health care,
broadcasting and utilities. Practitioners need to stay abreast of the latest
innovations. A certificate program will help professionals keep up to
date and enable future technicians to prepare for entry-level positions.
The telecommunications certificate enables
experienced professionals to stay abreast of the latest
innovations in telecommunications. It also provides a path toward an
entry-level position for those who have no prior college experience and
who may wish to work while they pursue an Associates Degree. Upon
successful completion of the certificate, graduates may apply these
credits toward the college’s A.A.S. degree in Telecommunications or the
A.A.S. in Electrical Technology.
