Expands on learner’s knowledge of Civil 3D by providing skills in surface creation, utilizing existing survey data and break lines generated with automatic linework generation tools, developing a clear understanding on how Civil 3D surfaces are generated, as a basis for future design. Learners will then work on establishing an alignment and profile to use in a corridor model that will aid them in generating a design surface that they can utilize as a useful tool (such as cutting cross sections, determining earthwork volumes, and generating plans that could be used during construction and bidding). Learners will also get introductory exposure to feature lines, grading objects, and utility tools within the Civil 3D software.
Prepares learners to perform basic nursing skills under the supervision of a nurse for job entry as a nursing assistant or a home health aide (HHA) in health care agencies. Face-to-face and hybrid classroom, campus lab and clinical instruction are offered at various nursing homes and hospitals throughout the district. Students need to submit an application and complete background check.
Provides an introduction to Smart Technology specifically for use in Civil Engineering, and includes the exploration of: current technology trends in general engineering, and more specifically in Civil Engineering, and how these technologies are currently affecting (and may affect in the future) the industry; the use of drones and remote sensing applications for Civil Engineering projects (along with the opportunity to fly drones to capture data for use in engineering design); and how developing and utilizing networked smart technology is essential to the future of Engineering and it’s evolution.
Provides an introduction to stormwater management and includes key areas of knowledge such as: the basic concepts of stormwater hydrology and treatment; the key design principles required with storm sewer systems, culverts, and detention/retention basins; and storm sewer plans (including related details and specifications required to create an engineering planset); and key design concepts to manage stormwater runoff during construction.
Builds on surveying concepts including these important skills: computations and field methods involved in traversing; area calculations; field work to collect information for survey maps and engineering designs, including control point creation and topographic surveys; and an overview of the global navigation satellite system.
