“The exam is a rigorous test of our students’ skills and abilities,” said Craig A. Miller, instructor and department head of engineering and industrial design technology. “Passing the exam speaks to our students’ dedication to their studies, their drive to succeed and their value to future employers.”
Passing the test were: Kevin W. Brewer, Newtown; Nathanael T. Morgan, Shirleysburg; Michael R. Naugler, Sykesville, Maryland; Jack P. Ralston, Bloomsburg; and Benson P. Weaver, Lititz.
The students had to tackle a series of solid modeling, drawing and assembly problems related to mechanical design. They had 3 hours and 20 minutes to complete the exam.
“The certification sets our students apart from the competition,” Miller said. “As a department, we could not be prouder.”
