>> IAP - Industrial Automation and Pre-Engineering

DEPCO's new Industrial Automation and Pre-Engineering (IAP) program is a skill-based, hands-on, interactive learning system using equipment and software that is standard in industry. IAP provides students with not only the basics, but also the advanced knowledge and skills needed to have the competitive edge in today's job market.

This new, innovative program is designed as an advanced industrial automation and pre-engineering program - ideal for tenth through twelfth grades. This multi-level courseware, developed from national standards, will lay the foundation for post-secondary success.

IAP focuses on the development of industrial workplace skills. As students progress through the courseware, the classroom instructor uses a detailed rubric to subjectively evaluate the student's skill and proficiency. DEPCO courseware is developed from the Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (MSSC) and the National Skill Standards Board (NSSB). Close correlation with these standards will provide students with the skills and knowledge necessary for success in the workplace.

The IAP program is comprised of Industrial Training Centers (ITC). Each ITC includes multi-level courseware designed to develop industrial skills and automation integration. Each level includes twenty instructional lessons utilizing DEPCO's innovative MediaPLUS(tm) curriculum delivery system and full-color Industrial Training Manuals.

Curriculum, software, and equipment for the following:

  • Aerodynamics
  • Automated Material Handling
  • CAD-CAM
  • CNC Machining
  • Engineering Graphics
