Albany Tech to offer new electrical diploma programs

Dec. 1—ALBANY — Albany Technical College has announced a new program offering for a National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) Electrical Systems Construction and Maintenance diploma. With this adoption, former Electrical Construction and Industrial Electrical diplomas will be replaced with the NCCER curriculum that can result in a certification outside of the ATC diploma or technical certificates of credit. "This will open doors for new students to enter a field that is becoming more and more underserved in our community," Albany Tech Program Chair/Instructor Ebony Johnson said in a news release.
