Learn Robotics, Micro, Electrical and Factory Machine Technology in two-year COMMUNITY COLLEGE Apprenticeship programs —

These people are now very high-tech, using laptop computers —

Two-year Community Colleges and State Technical schools also provide advanced training in ” Micro – chip” and ” Nano – technology”. —
