Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inspection, and Repair

INTRODUCTION

The Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inspection, and Repair program is a 1350 hour program, respectively, responsible

for training individuals to attain an entry-level status in the power generation maintenance industry. The program covers a

broad range of instruction that may be found in the program outline. An appropriate amount of time is spent in each area

to thoroughly cover needed instructional material as well as to gain manipulative skills. The program utilizes both theory

and practical application of material to help the students gain needed knowledge and skills. Each student must

successfully complete written test material on theory and related topics as well as successfully demonstrate the practical

application of this information in the laboratory environment. Prerequisites for this program should include a solid

background in math and science in general with emphasis on basic math, formulas, fraction and decimal conversion, and

the use of precision measuring equipment, physics, chemistry and metallurgy. These areas are taught as part of the

program of study, but it would be helpful to have these skills in advance. Materials used are self-paced which allow

students to progress at their own pace. Competencies in each area are completed after both written and performance

testing.

PROGRAM MISSION

The mission of the Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inspection, and Repair program is to prepare students for

employment in the power generation maintenance mechanic field. The program focuses on student and industry needs.

Training is constantly updated by the instructor and program advisory committee to keep current with technological

changes.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

To register you must meet with a counselor in the Student Services Department, located in “C” Building.

Applicants must be at least 16 years of age and should be academically, physically, and emotionally capable of meeting

the demands of the program. Applicants make initial application through the Admissions Office. A minimum skills

evaluation is part of the admission process.

A high school diploma or GED is not required to enroll. However, it is very strongly recommended that all students

complete either a high school diploma or a GED prior to program completion.

The Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inspection, and Repair program requires 9th grade TABE levels in order to receive a

certificate of completion. It is very strongly recommended that all students score not less than one grad level below

required scores before enrolling in the program. Students applying to this program must also take the Bennett Test of

Mechanical Aptitude. No other program prerequisites are required for program enrollment other than an interest in the

program, a commitment to enter the workplace at the completion of the program, and a desire to succeed in the program.

Students who enroll prior business skills and/or training may be able to complete program requirements in less time than

students who enter without this background.

of 24

When meeting with the counselor, students are required to provide two documents that confirm Florida residency status

for tuition purposes.

High school student who meet the requirements for career dual enrollment may register at FMIT if they have been

recommended by their high school students should speak with their school counselor for details.

TEST OF ADULT BASIC EDUCATION

All applicants for this program take a state-mandated TABE assessment prior to enrollment (documented A.A., A.S.,

A.A.S., B.A., and B.S. degreed persons are exempt from this requirement).

*Florida Statue 1004.91 exempts the following prospective students from completing the entry-level assessment of basic

academic skills:

Applicants, who possess a college degree, associate in applied science or higher.

Students who demonstrate readiness for public post-secondary education as stipulated by Florida Statute 1008.30

Students who pass a state or national industry certification or licensure exam that is aligned with the educational

program of enrollment

An adult student who is enrolled in a state-approved apprenticeship program

Students requesting exemption from the basic skills assessment must provide documentation such as official transcripts

and certificates.

According to Florida Department of Education rules, students who fail all or parts of the TABE may only retest using a

different TABE version after 60 documented hours of remediation in the Applied Academics for Adult Education

(AAAE) lab or three months if not attending AAAE. Students may not retake the same test version for six months. We,

therefore, strongly recommend that students test early, especially for licensure programs, in order to allow time for

remediation and retesting should the need arise.

Students who do not meet the minimum TABE scores set by the Florida Department of Education for their program must

begin attending remediation classes in the AAAE lab prior to or at the time of enrollment in the program for at least one

block a day and make acceptable progress as determined by the AAAE instructor. Students should meet state-mandated

TABE requirements by the time they have completed the 1st semester of the program. Students who do not meet state-

mandated TABE scores may not receive a certificate of completion as per Florida Department of Education rules.

Applicants transferring TABE, PERT, or CPT scores from other testing centers must do so by having an official score

report sent directly to the Admissions Office prior to enrollment. Scores brought in by hand will not be accepted.

TABE scores are good for two years and must be valid at the time of enrollment. TABE scores that expire during

continuous enrollment remain valid until the end of such enrollment. Under continuous enrollment, students must be

enrolled at least 50% of one semester per school year and may miss no more than one consecutive semester. Continuous

enrollment applies to attendance in a single program.

ACCOMMONDATIONS

Federal and state legislation requires the provision of accommodations for student with disabilities as identified on the

secondary student’s IEP or 504 plan or post-secondary student’s accommodations plan to meet individual needs to ensure

equal access. Post-secondary students with disabilities must self-identify, present documentation, required

accommodations if needed, and develop a plan with their post-secondary service provider. Accommodations received in

post-secondary education may differ from those received in secondary education. Accommodations change the way the

student is instructed. Students with disabilities may need accommodations in such areas as instructional methods and

materials, assignments and assessments, time demands and schedules, learning environment, assistive technology, and

special communication systems. Documentation of the accommodations requested and services provided are maintained

in a confidential file.

TUITION Tuition is charged for adult students at a reasonable rate that may vary slightly from year to year and is due prior to the

first day of each semester. Current fee information is available from the Admissions Office. Tuition is waived for eligible

high school dual-enrolled students. Failure to pay all fees due at the time class begins will result in the student not being

able to attend class and/or clinical.

of 24

CLASS SCHEDULE

Daytime certificated classes meet Monday through Friday from 8:00 A.M. until 2:30 P.M. for adult post-secondary

students. This amounts to 30 hours of classroom instruction per week. Lunch breaks are 30 minutes in length.

ATTENDANCE POLICY

In an effort to develop appropriate work ethics, FMIT students are expected to attend all class sessions. As is expected in

the workplace, when it is necessary to be absent due to illness or emergency situations, all students are to notify the

instructor on or before the date of absence. The student attendance policy for each post-secondary program is consistent

with industry standards.

Campus attendance is kept via a computerized system. It is the responsibility of the student to log in and out in order to

receive credit for class time. This allows the school to keep accurate attendance records for the actual number of hours and

minutes attended.

All adult students are expected to be in attendance at least 90% of their scheduled hours during each semester. Adult

students failing to maintain the 90% attendance standard will not be permitted to continue in their program and may be

required to sit out one full semester, unless administration approves to waive the 90% standard based on special

circumstances.

Absences

A student who is absent for ten (10) consecutive class sessions will be withdrawn from enrollment in his/her program. A

student withdrawn for absenteeism must petition administration to return. Students exhibiting a pattern of consecutive

absences less than six days will be subject to dismissal as determined by a School Intervention Team. School Intervention

Team meetings will be held as necessary to attempt to alleviate issues resulting in excessive absences and to counsel the

student of possible alternatives and consequences.

Students who are late for class, including returning late from lunch, must clock in. Students who leave school early must

notify their instructor and clock out. This time out of class is recorded as time absent and is counted against the required

90% attendance. Excessive tardies or early departures will be reported to the Student Affairs Specialist and will result in a

meeting with the School Attendance Intervention Team.

Adult students who know they will be out of school for an extended period of time (5 days or longer) may apply for a

Leave of Absence from their program. A Leave of Absence will be granted only once during a twelve month period.

STUDENTS WHO EXERCISE A LEAVE OF ABSENCE MAY HAVE TO EXTEND THEIR TIME IN THEIR

PROGRAM AND PAY ADDITIONAL FEES.

Leaving Campus During School Hours

Students should notify their instructor when leaving campus early. This is for the safety of students and to allow the

instructor to best utilize instruction resources.

PLAN OF INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES

Teaching Methods

Material used is self-paced and competency-based. Students proceed at their own pace with written, audio-visual, and

hands-on training. They are tested periodically with written and practical testing. Practical shop experiences are designed

to enhance and reinforce the theories involved as well as to develop manipulative skill and good work and safety

practices. Teaching aids utilizing digital presentations, DVDs, CBTs, etc., are used to a great extent throughout all

instruction. Wall charts, specification charts, and other reference materials are on constant display throughout the

classroom and laboratory. A great deal of equipment must be utilized for “hands-on” skill requirements. The students

will acquire rapport in working with such equipment. Materials are reviewed and updated periodically to keep them as

current and as relevant as possible. Students are made responsible for all laboratory requirements such as maintaining

tools, equipment, and facilities, writing all required job reports, tool room management, and cleanup of shop areas.

of 24

Safety

A basic outline of safety standards and practices is covered along with a continuous implementation of safety principles.

Students will also need to receive their OSHA 10, Twic, and in some states Basic Plus.

Evaluation

Class performance, quizzes, tests, attendance, portfolio assessments, completion of project assignments, decision-making,

work habits, and achievement of entry-level competencies, and other methods are used for evaluation. See “Grading

Procedures.”

Work-Based Activities

Work-based learning activities play an integral part of the curriculum of FMIT’s career-technical training programs.

These activities are planned with two objectives in mind. First, the activity provides students with the opportunity to

develop and apply a ‘real world’ experience using the knowledge and skills attained in the program. Second, the activity

provides the instructor with objective input from potential employers or customers of program graduates. Each work-

based activity has a written instructional plan outlining objectives, experiences, competencies, and evaluation required

during the activity.

Work-based activities are program specific and may include:

Unpaid in-school shop activities to provide customer service opportunities under the direct supervision of the

program instructor.

Unpaid job shadowing experiences that may include in-school or off-campus employer-based experiences under

the supervision of a qualified employer representative who is working closely with the program instructor.

Paid or unpaid cooperative training experiences conducted at the employer’s work location under the supervision

of a qualified employer representative and under the direction of the program instructor.

Cooperative Education

Cooperative training is available for students and coordinated by the instructor and career specialist. Cooperative training

is for students who have shown competence in program training that indicates readiness for placement in an on-the-job

program. High school students participating in the cooperative job placement program must be in at least the 12th grade.

To be eligible for a cooperative education experience, students must have completed one-half of the required program

hours and requirements.

Students may be returned to the program for additional training if they do not function satisfactorily on the job or when

the cooperative agreement is terminated at the request of the student, parent, employer, or program instructor. Veterans

will be accepted into the program in accordance with the Department of Veterans Affairs approved program.

Additional information regarding co-op opportunities may be obtained from the program instructor or career specialist.

Job Shadowing

Job shadowing experiences, or volunteer experiences, are available to students as part of their program training. These

experiences are designed to give the student actual hands-on experience doing a variety of related tasks. Length and type

of experiences will vary. The program instructor determines appropriateness of the experience. Additional information

regarding job-shadowing experiences may be obtained from the program instructor or career specialist.
