The Electrical/Electronics Technology curriculum is designed to provide training for persons interested in the installation and maintenance of electrical/electronic systems found in residential, commercial, and industrial facilities.

Training, most of which is hands-on, will include such topics as AC/DC theory, basic wiring practices, digital electronics, programmable logic controllers, industrial motor controls, the National Electrical Code, and other subjects as local needs require.

Graduates should qualify for a variety of jobs in the electrical/electronics field as an industrial electronics technician or apprentice assisting in the layout, installation, and maintenance of electrical/electronic systems.

COMPETENCIES

Randolph Community College is committed to continuous improvement through program evaluation. One part of the evaluation is to assess program competencies. While our program contains many competencies for students to master, each year a select few are chosen for assessment purposes. This year, program competency assessment will focus on these:

1. Plan and construct Residential/Commercial/Industrial wiring circuits.

2. Analyze and explain the operation of electrical controls used in industry.

3. Solve and construct electronic circuits.

4. Classify and explain DC and AC circuits.

5. Show proficiency in the use of digital and analog test equipment.
