By Staff Report-

Ivy Tech Community College, including its Fort Wayne and Warsaw locations, has announced it is offering free classes and trainings for 10,000 participants.

The college is elevating its commitment to Hoosiers impacted by COVID-19 experiencing unemployment, reduced hours and/or furloughs across the state, according to a news release from Ivy Tech. Participants may take more than one class or training in a range of relevant high-demand areas.

Hoosiers can get detailed information about the classes and trainings, and register for free, by visiting www.ivytech.edu/10kclasses.

Many of the classes and trainings will be offered so that the participants can start and finish on their own timeline, with no regular course meeting times. A few offerings are limited. The college plans to increase the types of offerings and trainings throughout the summer.  

Classes and trainings that are currently being offered as part of the initiative include:

• Advanced Manufacturing: Industry 4.0 Silver Level Multi-Skill Maintenance and Operations Technician Certifications (Associate, Electrical Systems, Electric Motor Control Systems, Motor Control Troubleshooting, Pneumatic Systems).

• Tools of the Industry with Autodesk: Introduction to CAD, CAM and Practical CNC Machining, Fusion 360 Introduction to CAD and CAM, Simulation Analysis for Mechanical Engineers, 3-Axis Machining with Fusion 360, Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Design and Manufacturing, Modeling and Design for Mechanical Engineers. Autodesk Inc. is the software provider for people who make things.

• Information Technology: Introduction to Cybersecurity, Cybersecurity Essentials, AWS Educate Cloud Practitioner.

• Business and Cross-Sector: LinkedIn Learning.

Later this summer, more class and training offerings for skills credit, and for-credit classes and trainings, will be phased in.
