This program provides basic entry-level and job upgrade skills. This subset of degrees and certificates was created in partnership with industry associates and The Department of Labor. It addresses the need of most contractors for multi-talented employees that can handle varied tasks with confidence. It is also intended to assist in the preparation of plumbers for successful completion of state plumbing exams. Completion of plumbing-related coursework at Red Rocks Community College can replace the field experience (work under a master plumber) required to qualify to take the exams as follows: one hour of classroom training equals one hour of on-the-job training up to a maximum of one year.
Bachelor of Science transfer program: All Construction Technology Associate of Applied Science graduates are eligible to participate in the Colorado Community College Pathways program, a strategic partnership between DeVry University – Colorado and Red Rocks Community College. Students may transfer 80+ credit hours from Red Rocks Community College to DeVry University and complete a Bachelor of Science in Technical Management in as few as two semesters.
Specialized and job upgrade courses (for example, PLU 207 International Plumbing Code, PLU 247 Hot Water Heating Systems) will continue to be taught as stand-alone courses.
