General Education:
This component was reported on in 1998. Based on our schedule of reporting, it will be reported on next in 2002.

Majors or Concentration:

Computer Programming Technology
Northeastern Technical College’s Computer Technology program moved to new facilities in the Fall semester, 2000; in the new Harris Hall, two computer laboratories are now available, with 38 new computers and current edition software. The availability of two labs has facilitated scheduling in order to provide more class offerings. As a result, enrollment has increased.

The Computer Technology Department is staffed with three permanent faculty members, as of January, 1999. Adjunct faculty contribute to the instructional program for evening classes; however, permanent faculty continue to teach both day and evening classes. Computer Technology faculty have participated in professional development activities, including web design and languages, Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, Cisco certification and have incorporated this training in revising existing courses and developing new ones.
 

Machine Tool Technology
The Machine Tool program enrollment steadily increases, attracting more non-apprenticeship students plus enrolling more apprentices, based on increased company needs. In 1998, the College employed a second permanent Machine Tool instructor to meet the enrollment demands of the program. Placement of students averages over 95% for the past 5 years, reflecting the placement of the apprenticeship students and the need for these skilled employees by other local industries. Sufficient, modern equipment is needed to continue to offer a current, relevant program.
