Career Development Events (CDEs) help students develop the abilities to think critically, communicate clearly, and perform effectively in a competitive job market. There are over 25 CDEs, covering job skills in everything from communications to mechanics. The students went through the Electrification CDE from skills to exam. Their skill and exam were scored and tested to ensure proper wiring. They also learned about Reading Ladder & Placement Diagrams, Conductor Counts, Calculations with Watts, Volt & Amps, and Working through Bill of Materials List. This event helps prepare the students for the EMC CDE Contest in January.
