LENAPE TECH

CADD/Pre-Engineering Technology If you like using your creativity to design new things and watch them develop, then Lenape Tech's CADD/Pre-Engineering Technology program may be the right place for you. Students in the program use state-of-the-art technology to create detailed drawings that meet industry standards. The pre-engineering component of the also incorporates advanced concepts and equipment designed to better prepare students to enter college in the engineering field. Students see their designs come to life through the use of new 3-D modeling equipment that can take computer-generated designs and convert them to three-dimensional replicas that serve as prototypes. Lenape Tech's CADD/PET program partners with local industry, providing students with valuable real world experience. CADD/PET students also have the opportunity to work on the integrated projects with students in the other Lenape Tech programs. Lenape Tech's certification with American Design & Drafting Association for Apprentice Drafting, allows students to obtain an ADDA apprentice certificate upon graduation. Lenape Tech also has articulation agreements for Pre-Engineering and Drafting/Design with several post-secondary institutions including Butler County Community College and California University of Pennsylvania. Precision Machining Technology If you are intrested in a field that is in high demand, has a good pay scale and great benefits, come be a part of Lenape Tech's Precision Machining program. Precision machine shops offer clean, high-tech work environments, and skilled machinists have lifelong career opportunities. Precision Machining students receive training on advanced machines and lathes, along with electrical discharge, wire cut, and die sinker equipment. Students learn basic skills in manual and conputerized machining, and are trained in state-of-the-art technology, such as: Computer Aided Drafting/Computer Aided Machining (CAD/CAM) ; Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) ; Electronic Discharge Machining (EDM) ; Waterjet. The Precision Machining program utilizes curricula based on the National Tooling and Machining Association (NTMA), and the National Istitute of Metalworking Standards (NIMS) to ensure that information being taught is current and the industry standard. Welding Technology Almost everything we see - from buildings and bridges to airplanes and race cars - includes a welded component. And in every instance, it took a trained welding professional to "make the sparks fly." Lenape Tech's Welding Technology program offers students the opportunity to gain the skills they need to obtain employment in the welding industy. If you like to work with your hands and have a lot of eye-hand coordination, welding may be for you. Students are trained in layout, drafting patterns, cut and form parts, and welding and fabricating items according to specifications. Students can also obtain an American Welding Society (AWS) welding certification upon completion of required testing. Students learn the skills needed to gain employment or to continue their education in welding or other fields, such as engineering, manufacturing, construction, teaching, inspection, research, or underwater welding. Imagine, putting on a helmet, blocking everything out, and concentrating on creating unifor welds that lead to success. Lenape Tech's Welding Technology program can make it happen for you.
