Transportation Industry Overview

The transportation industry must continue to adapt to changing technology and repair techniques as vehicle components and systems become increasingly sophisticated. Examples include developments in rocket technology, super-capacity jet airplanes, drone technology, fully electric, hybrid and hydrogen fuel-cell technology affecting automobiles, and diesel trucks that run on bio-diesel or other alternative fuels. This industry also plays an important part in education through financial and in-kind support for training and educating the current and future workforce.

Transportation Services include: Automotive, Aircraft, Marine, and High Speed Rail Systems. The Transportation Industry sector features three career pathways that provide opportunities from entry-level jobs requiring high school diplomas to progressive careers requiring advanced degrees, licenses, and certifications. These pathways emphasize real-world, occupationally relevant experiences of significant scope and depth in order to prepare students for postsecondary education and employment in various transportation industries.
