Several Drake State Technical College instructors recently received
craft instructor certification from the National Center for Construction
Education and Research (NCCER) to teach short-term, non-credit courses
in the areas of electricity and welding.
Tad Montgomery, applied technologies division chair and machine tool
instructor; Collis Sims, electrical technology instructor; and Fred
Pruitt, welding technology instructor, successfully completed the NCCER
instructor certification training program.
NCCER is a not-for-profit education foundation created in 1996 to
address the critical skilled workforce shortage and to develop
standardized construction, maintenance, and pipeline curricula with
portable credentials. NCCER is affiliated with the University of
Florida’s M. E. Rinker, Sr. School of Building Construction.
