Do you have an interest in working in electrical and related areas, such as: power distribution and utilization; electrical power generation, transmission, and protection; industrial telecommunications; electrical maintenance and installation; control systems; services; sales; design; or repairs? Have you completed an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, or have mature student status (19 years or older)? Additionally, did you obtain your English Grade 12 C or U credit, or equivalent (minimum grade required) or are willing to take the Centennial College English Skills Assessment for Admission; and you Mathematics Grade 11 M or U, or 12 C or U credit, or equivalent (minimum grade required) or are willing to take a Centennial College Engineering Math Skills Assessment for Admission?
If you answered 'yes', Centennial College's Electrical Engineering Technician program may be for you. This Ontario College Diploma program takes two years to complete and allows students to gain the know-how to work as entry-level electrical engineering technicians in a range of employment settings in commercial, utility and industries using electrical technology. It also allows them to work in various electrical environments, including those relating to power distribution and utilization; electrical power generation; transmission and protection; industrial telecommunications; electrical maintenance and installation; and control systems. The range of functions these professionals complete are limited to the supervision of a qualified person to ensure safety and compliance with relevant codes and standard practices.
With a technical skills shortage is looming both regionally and nationally in Canada in this area, grads of Centennial College will be in demand.
In terms of specific electrical engineering courses, this program includes Canadian Electrical Code and Drawing Interpretation, Mathematics, Electrical Theory and Installations, AutoCAD, Electronics, Canadian Electrical Code, Drawing Interpretation and more. The courses take a practical approach, with students learning in modern labs and lecture facilities at the Progress Campus to produce electrical drawings as well as diagnostics and analysis of electrical systems; acquire understanding of testing and troubleshooting electrical power systems; and compete simulating actual workplace assignments. A grounding electrical engineering sciences and skills, including electrical circuits, maintenance of electrical instruments or devices, operation of electrical motors and power transmission as used in the industry is also beneficial to students.
