Industry Partner
Michigan Academy for Green Mobility Alliance (MAGMA) endorsed the Electric Vehicle Development Technology Certificate program/courses "with high marks" through an RFP process for meeting specific knowledge and skill demands of the employers in the automotive manufacturing industry.
Collaborated with Ivy Techs Automotive Advisory Board employers to redesign and contextualize the curriculum throughout the program. Several regional advisory board employers provided valuable feedback on certifications required, soft skills needed and level of math required in industry. Automotive Institute Steering Committee discussed and endorsed the EV/Automotive Institute Program including calendar, curriculum, nationally recognized certifications, CT and TC degrees and a statewide dress/uniform code.

Abstract
Welcome to the 30-credit Electric Vehicle Technology Certificate program developed by the National STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) Consortium (NSC). The NSC is a collaborative of ten colleges in nine states funded by a U.S. Department of Labor grant to develop new workforce training programs in five technical pathways: Composites Technology, Cyber Technology, Electric Vehicle Technology, Environmental Technology, and Mechatronics Technology. This file contains all of the materials created for the NSC Electric Vehicle Technology Program Guide (program overview, information about the industry, the curriculum, program infrastructure, the role of the business community, student success strategies, and related documents). To review and download course materials, including teaching toolkits, syllabi, lesson plans, and miscellaneous instructional materials, look for the twelve courses with the name beginning Course: NSC Electric Vehicle Technology Certificate Program in the National STEM Consortium Learning Resources Collection in SkillsCommons. The full NSC Electric Vehicle Technology program, including interactive online modules, also is available on the Open Learning Initiative website, www.oli.cmu.edu (see link below).
