Open Letter to TMCC admin
I was asked the other day why I thought the AIT classes had such low enrollment... after thinking about it, I answered "marketing" (or more specifically, lack thereof).As I have just finished the last of my classes in this area for MAP & NTT, I believe this to be true (as I had 8 students in the MAP class, even with NO hands-on equipment thank you) and 14 students in the NTT class (at $1195 a head for a 3 day class!). Seems to be some interest here… (especially in short-courses), which brings me to my point…
Looking over the Sunday paper classifieds, I see a nice big ad for TMCC (as per usual…) but see no mention of recruitment for the “Manufacturing Technologies Instructor” (or any instructors for that matter, just a lot of admin & staff positions… again as per usual).
When is TMCC going to actively recruit for these MT & IMT positions? There’s only a couple of months left & there really isn’t any “canned” curriculum out there for the PLC program I’m aware of (the only reason I got it off the ground that first semester was I already had a lot of it in the can from other jobs ….).
And… IF & when the new manufacturing tech courses are offered, are we going to see any mention of it in the media, or will these programs be left to die like the IMT program?
