(Delaware and Chester Counties, PA • April 5, 2017)—Delaware County Community College will host an information session on its Electro-Mechanical Technologies program on Tuesday, April 25 from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Exton Center (912 Springdale Drive, Exton, PA). Students can earn 27 to 28 credits in this short-term certificate program, which serves as an entry into an advanced manufacturing career or Advanced Technology associate degree.

Electro-mechanical technicians work with anything that combines electronic controls with mechanical systems to complete a task or process. Some examples include ATMs, robotic manufacturing to produce automobiles, or even order fulfillment in a complex warehouse and distribution system. Students receive instruction in electrical controls and programmable controllers, manufacturing and operational testing, as well as system analysis and maintenance procedures.

At the information session, attendees will learn more about the program and how to apply for a training grant. Through the generosity of the JPMorgan Chase Foundation, the Delaware County Community College Educational Foundation is offering training grants to selected students that will complement any financial aid for which a student might be eligible or meet expenses for students not eligible for financial aid. The intent is to ensure that students can complete the Electro-Mechanical Technologies program for free.

Seats are limited! Please register to attend this event at dccc.edu/info-session or call 610-450-6510.
