School of Construction Technology

Become part of the growing global community of Skilled Trades professionals or Skilled Trades managers. Design, plan, construct and complete structures for your home or for your career. You can earn a certificate or degree in Residential Construction, Construction Management or Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. These programs offer the perfect blend of classroom education and hands-on training. At the Henry S. Landau Design and Construction Training Center, you will be taught construction skills from the ground up. You can learn classic skills such as woodworking or modern techniques needed to maintain or improve your own structure. On the main campus, the HVAC program offers a wide range of training to equip high-end technicians with the knowledge and skills needed for successful entry into the field. Washtenaw Community College offers programs at several levels for students who want to begin new careers, or advance in their existing careers. The first level is the certificate, which can vary from nine to thirty-six credits, depending on the field. Certificates generally prepare students for entry-level jobs. After completing a certificate, students can progress to the next level, the advanced certificate. The credit hours required for these programs also vary. This type of certificate provides a more specialized level of skill development, and often allows students to upgrade their positions at their places of employment. The next level, an Associate in Applied Science, is available for some programs. For some career fields, it is possible to earn a certificate, advanced certificate, and an Associate in Applied Science degree in the same field. In these cases, the credit hours from the certificate and advanced certificate can be applied to the credit hours needed for the Associate in Applied Science degree.
