The Composites cohort is a 12-week program. Upon completion the candidate will have successfully demonstrated the knowledge, skills, and ability to perform the work of a Composites Assembly Mechanic, to include, interpreting model-based drawings and blueprints, following work instructions, working with high-performance materials like fiberglass, carbon fiber, and epoxy resins, honeycomb and identifying all required hand tools, parts and equipment to accomplish defect-free work and ensuring structural integrity and safety. This involves understanding composite layup techniques, curing processes, and surface finishing, with a focus on quality control and precision.
