Maintenance Engineering Technology Program

今天的美国公司必须在全球市场中竞争。为了具有竞争力，这些公司必须拥有一个高绩效运作的工作场所。维护功能是高性能工作场所生存的关键。每家公司都必须雇用维护技术人员，这些技术人员必须开发、保留并不断提高日益复杂的多功能技能，以便在工业高性能工作场所环境中发挥作用。维修工程技术人员的独特之处在于，他们必须掌握和使用基本技能和知识、特定职业技能、多行业技能和跨职能技能，以跟上美国工作场所不断变化的需求。维修工程技术领域涵盖了整个行业，代表着建筑和工厂设施的运营以及生产和加工行业的运营的命脉。亨利福特社区学院(HFCC)的维修工程技术计划(METPRO)将教育、政府、企业和行业联系起来，以整合必要的资源，为进入、升级或提高其在维修工程技术领域的高性能多功能维修工程技术员(HP-Metec)的地位做准备：1)制定和实施国家标准和认证制度，以及中学和社区大学水平的维修工程技术课程，并将这些计划与相关大学课程相结合；2)确保在维修工程技术计划中解决基本的数学、科学、通信和扫描考虑因素，3)为高中教师、学院和大学教职员工提供对维修工程技术领域的更深入的了解，4)通过与企业和行业的合作伙伴关系提供直接联系，以确保工作场所的经验和能力是维护工程技术课程的一部分，从而使毕业生能够顺利过渡到工作场所，以及5)通过方便地进入METPRO课程及其认证系统，满足有经验的工人的升级培训需求。

American companies today must compete in a global marketplace. To be competitive, these same companies must have a workplace that functions at high performance levels. The maintenance function is the key to survival in a high performance workplace. Each company must employ maintenance technicians who must develop, retain, and continuously enhance increasingly complex multifunctional skills to perform in an industrial high performance workplace environment. Maintenance engineering technicians are unique in that they must acquire and use basic skills and knowledge, occupation-specific skills, multi-trade skills, and cross-functional skills to keep up with the changing demands of the American workplace. The field of maintenance engineering technology encompasses all of the industry and represents the lifeblood of building and plant facility's operations and operations in production and process industries. The Maintenance Engineering Technology Program (METPRO) at Henry Ford Community College (HFCC) links education, government, business and industry to consolidate the resources necessary to prepare persons to enter, upgrade or enhance their position in the maintenance engineering technology field as high performance multifunctional maintenance engineering technicians (HP-METEC) with the following: 1) Development and implementation of a national standard and certification system and a maintenance engineering technology curricula at the secondary school and community college levels and articulating these programs with related university programs, 2) ensure basic math, science, communications and SCANS considerations are addressed in maintenance engineering technology programs, 3) provide enhanced vision of the maintenance engineering technology field for high school teachers, college and university faculty, 4) provide direct links through partnerships with business and industry to ensure workplace experiences and competencies are part maintenance engineering technology curricula to allow smooth transition of graduates into the workplace and, 5) address the upgrade training needs of experienced workers with ease of access to METPRO courses and its certification system.
