This course provides proper knowledge and practices in safety to help establish working habits that would reflect industry standards and result in a safe working environment. The use of written and digital service information and the basics of preventative maintenance are introduced.

This course covers careers in the Diesel and Transportation Industry, ASE Certification, fasteners, tools, preventative maintenance, lubrication systems, engines, and fuel systems.

This course covers electricity and electrical systems, batteries, starting systems, charging systems, steering and suspension systems, brakes, wheels, and tires.

Electrical I provides theory and hands-on instruction on the principles of electricity, basic components, sensors, circuits, wiring schematics, and multi-meters.

In the Electrical II course, students learn advanced electrical theory and diagnostic procedures.

The Steering and Suspension course provides theory and hands-on instruction on the maintenance and repair of front axles, alignment, truck frames, steering and suspension systems, and coupling devices.

Brakes provides theory and hands-on instruction on heavy-duty braking systems. Students will learn maintenance and repair of wheels and tires, hubs and wheel bearings, air brake systems, drum and rotor brakes, Anti-lock braking systems (ABS), and hydraulic braking systems.

In this Drivetrain course, students receive theory and hands-on instruction on the maintenance and repair of heavy-duty drivetrain systems. Topics will include clutches, transmissions, drive lines, and differentials.

Engines I provides theory and hands-on instruction and labs in basic operation, parts, and overhaul procedures of diesel engines. Students learn the removal, service, and repair of engine blocks, crankshafts, pistons, rings, connecting rods, camshafts, valve trains, injection pumps, and accessories.

Engines II provides the student with more advanced theory and hands-on instruction in diagnostics and operational systems of the internal combustion engine, including emissions, fuel, and after-treatment systems.

The Hydraulics course provides theory and hands-on instruction on fluid power as used in modern mobile equipment. Topics include the operation and repair of hydraulic/pneumatic components and systems. This course emphasizes testing, troubleshooting, design, and use of hydraulic schematics.

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) provides students with theory and hands-on instruction regarding troubleshooting and repair of heavy-duty truck air conditioning systems. Topics include condensers; check valves; driers; compressors; evaporators; controls; heating and cooling systems and controls; and refrigerant handling.

This course provides experience in computerized engine diagnostics. Time will be spent on engine performance factors, scan tools, input sensors, computer outputs, etc. It will also cover maintenance, tune-up, repair, and diagnostic procedures on electronic, hydraulic electric unit injection (HUEI), Bosch in-line, common rail and mechanical fuel systems.

This course teaches Diesel systems that control/regulate the engine's output emissions, emission controls, maintenance procedures, repair, diagnosis, and safety. Students will be taught the emission standards and regulations of the federal government and administered by organizations such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).
