| Description: | Broaden your career scope with the process and power engineering diploma. Process and power engineering covers two power engineering classes. In first year, you’ll earn your 4th class certification. That’s a requirement before you move into your second practicum between your first and second year of classes. For 3rd class training, you’ll move from the skills training in the Husky Power Engineering Lab to the more complex Energy Centre. It’s an integrated power plant with a once-through steam generator. Power engineering is all about safely operating and maintaining boilers, turbines and engines. Your job prospects aren’t limited to the oil sector. |
