Outcomes
College Scorecard field-of-study results for graduates who received federal aid. Fields are the broader 4-digit program family, so welding and machining share "Precision Metal Working". Earnings are medians for graduates working and not enrolled; cohorts lag several years. Scorecard reports outcomes under the school's federal aid ID, which can combine several branch campuses, so counts can exceed this campus's own graduates.
| Field | Credential | Median pay, 1 yr | Median pay, 5 yrs | Median federal debt |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical and Power Transmission Installers (46.03) | Undergraduate certificate | $55,806 n=17 | $67,115 | n/a |
| Heating, Air Conditioning, Ventilation and Refrigeration Maintenance Technology/Technician (HAC, HACR, HVAC, HVACR) (47.02) | Undergraduate certificate | n/a | $42,850 | n/a |
| Precision Metal Working (48.05) | Undergraduate certificate | $55,402 n=26 | $70,151 | n/a |
| Ground Transportation (49.02) | Undergraduate certificate | $36,822 n=32 | n/a | n/a |
