PLUMBING (PLB)

MISSION: The mission of the plumbing program is to prepare students for successful employment or advancement in the plumbing industry.

In addition to residential work, plumbers also do installation for new construction, pipe-laying, and pipe-fitting. Plumbers install, maintain and repair many different types of pipe systems. The Occupational Outlook Handbook reports that job opportunities are expected to be excellent, as demand for skilled pipe layers, pipe fitters and steamfitters is expected to outpace the supply of workers trained in this craft. This program consists of one short certificate.
