• Computer Aided Design / Pro-E

It’s been an exciting time for us as our Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Pro-Engineer (Pro-E) program has experienced new growth. That’s largely due to a new delivery system that allows students to take classes on their own time schedule.

Instructors in the program have undertaken the tremendous task of placing all of their lecture sessions online. That means students can listen to the lectures whenever they want… or even repeat parts of lectures to make sure they understand the content.

Students then come into the college to do their actual hands-on work. Labs are available at all three of our colleges, Clinton, Muscatine and Scott. The instructors have scheduled times that they are at the colleges each week to answer questions and work with students one-on-one.

Scheduling classes and lab time around busy work and family schedules couldn’t be easier!

Our Associate in Applied Science degree program in Mechanical Design Technology allows students to tailor their program with a variety of course options including:

• Pro-E / Solidworks Modeling Certificate
• CAD / Pro-E Engineer Certificate
• CAD / Pro-E Diploma
• CAD / Pro E – Associate in Applied Science Degree

All four options include the training required by industry and delivered in a practical, hands-on method that applies directly to the world of work. Each class is just eight weeks in length meaning you quickly move from one class to the next.
