Tuition Funding for Production Technician

As part of the JobTrak PA (TAACCCT) promotion at RACC, we are offering Production Technician training with a tuition waiver! The tuition for this program is regularly $4,415.00, but RACC is providing a tuition waiver to qualified students. The only out of pocket expense to the student is books and consumables which is approx. $415.00. Also, students of Latin descent, may be able to participate in a Hispanic Center grant which would reimburse ½ this cost. The program is expected to run between 10 – 12 weeks. 

RACC has extensive associations with major manufacturing firms in Berks and surrounding counties that recognize the caliber of training provided to our students. Career Coaching will be available to students as they progress through the program and once completed, will provide assistance with resumes, interview skills, and job search strategies.

To qualify for the program the student must:

1. Have a High School or GED diploma         
2. Take the WIN assessment, scoring 4 or better on Math, Reading for Information, and Locating Information. On line remediation is available to students needing to boost scores in order to qualify.

Training includes: Technical Math, Basic Measurement, Blueprint Reading, Mechanical Fabrication, Electrical Fabrication, Production Assembly, MIG Welding, Safety Practices and Regulations, Personal Protective Equipment, Communication Skills, Conflict Resolution, and Working in Groups.

Please chare this information with prospective students or friends and family that may be looking for short term training in a high demand occupation. It is a great opportunity with potential to change someone’s life.
