California Ski Industry Association
Sierra College mechatronics working in
partnership with the CA ski industry.
When the California Ski Industry Association (CSIA) went looking
for a partner to teach the foundations of mechatronics to their ski
lift technicians, they chose Sierra College. For five years
the CSIA and Sierra College have teamed up to offer an exceptional
lift maintenance technical training program. Endorsed by the CSIA
Board of Directors, the CSIA Technical Committee, and CalOSHA
Senior Engineer Jorg Ludwig, the training program offers an
introductory, intermediate and advanced level course in Ropeway
Mechatronics.
According to Kathy Hubbard, Deputy Director, California Ski
Industry Association, Sierra College has worked with the ski
industry to develop a very successful mechatronics training program
for ski lift technicians. "The ski industry has found an incredible
educational partner in Sierra College," said Hubbard. "From
the administration to the trainers who teach our courses, the
college has been nothing but first-rate."
