How about an introduction to automation in a single course?

KC Industrial Technology is offering INDT 115 Instrumentation and Process Control in the fall. Take a single course and get a great hands-on overview of sensors, inspection camera programming, PLC programming, variable frequency drives, and industrial wiring. Lab times are available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. One course will introduce all of these areas of industrial automation.

You do not need to register for the entire program to take courses in areas like robotics, CNC machining, and fluid power mechanics. You are welcome to complete a single course, an occupational certificate, or an Associate degree. We can even help you transfer to a 4-year university.
