Diesel Technician (CP) (Plan Code: DMTDTC90)

In an effort to properly evaluate our current offerings in the Diesel program we are not accepting new students into the program for the 2025-26 academic year. Depending on the review of the program, we may resume offering our regular two-year curriculum starting in the 2026-27 academic year. Are you interested in the way machine systems work? Do you enjoy troubleshooting engine problems and repairing lawnmowers, cars, trucks, or other machinery? If so, you may want to check out our Diesel Technology program.
