For example, Oakton is meeting employer demand by introducing new offerings this fall, including the following programs: Production Technician Certificate; Welding Technician; Programmable Controllers (PLC/PAC) Technician Certificate; and Cannabis Transportation, Logistics and Supply Chain Management Certificate.
The Production Technician Certificate (nine semester credit hours) offers credentials for entry-level manufacturing production workers.

The PLC/PAC Technician Certificate (15 semester credit hours) trains students for this challenging, yet highly rewarding, opportunity in the modern automation/mechatronics field.
The Cannabis Transportation, Logistics and Supply Chain Management Certificate (14 semester credit hours) prepares transporters to apply state laws and regulations to securely transport and track cannabis between business licenses.
