Want to learn the basics of heat treatment to make steel harder? We've got you covered! Our machining trades students practice basic heat treatment of parts with a torch during class.
The course is 80% hands-on work!
Contact ncooksey@c-tec.edu for more information on becoming a certified machinist.

In our Electrical Trades program, our students are so locked in that they don't even look up from their work — and we love it!
Hands-on learning is at the heart of everything they do. Whether they’re wiring circuits, repairing equipment, or prepping tools for the next project, these future electricians are gaining real-world skills.
