ELECTRONICS AND AUTOMATION STUDENT GARRETT BURGER is working on building an electrical control panel for an industry partner. While currently in our Electronics and Automation Program, Cram-A-Lot has employed Garrett as a Panel Shop Technician!

The focused partnership of Cram-A-Lot and NWTI has resulted in substantial progress in applying panel building in real-world scenarios. We are thankful for this opportunity and look forward to the success it brings for both NWTI and the industry partners who strive to improve the quality of education our students receive.

Great job, Garrett; keep navigating the road of success! #nwti #cramalot #electronics #automation #controlpanels #industry #industrypartners #nwarkansas #tradeschool #votech

TODAY AT NWTI THE "SAFETY MATTERS" CLASS FACILITATED BY KEATHLEY-PATTERSON TOOK PLACE.

The class was an in-depth exploration of functional safety for machinery, designed to equip attendees with the essential knowledge and skills to ensure a safe working environment. It covered the latest industry standards, risk assessment methodologies, and safeguarding practices.

We are grateful for industry partners like Keathley Patterson! #nwti #SafetyMatters #keathleypatterson #industrialtraining #springdale #nwarkansas #riskassessment #industry

THIS MORNING AT NWTI: State of NWTI address and 50th Anniversary Time Capsule Event!

Faculty, staff, friends, students, and two special guests (Mike Rogers and Stephanie Issacs), along with the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, came out to support us on this momentous occasion.

School President David Patty told the audience about our increased year-over-year student enrollment and the outstanding results we've gotten from our new short-term industry training program.

Last year started with four short-term industry classes, and currently we've increased that number to 17! We couldn't have achieved this level of success without the support of The Office of Skills Development and the Office of Workforce Training.

Thank you to all who attended, and NWTI will be around in 2050 to unearth this "new" time capsule! #nwti #nwakansas #nwarkansasdemocratgazette #springdale #votech #timecapsule #industrytraining #osd

BACK BEFORE THE SkillsUSA COMPETITION, a group of Diesel Truck Technology students, along with DTT instructors, took part in a community clean-up project.

A worthwhile endeavor that shows team spirit. Way to get it everyone! #nwti #nwarkansas #dieseltruck #trucks #skillsusa #skillsAR #community #cleanup #communityproject

NWTI THIS MORNING: CONGRATULATIONS to CDL graduating class #44! It was a dreary day for a class photo, and we had to dodge the rain, but we got it in! Outstanding job, everyone (and you too Lonnie). #nwti #cdl #dieseltruck #trucks #congratulations #graduate

SILENT BID AUCTION FOR A (DONATED) BOAT! We will hold a silent bid auction here on NWTI's main campus on Friday, June 5th, at approximately 3:30pm. NWTI will notify the winner by Monday, June 8th. The boat needs some work, but come check it out and if you like it, put in a bid! #silentauction #boats #automotive #nwti #nwarkansas

Can you tell that the semester is wrapping up? Yes, it's finals week! It looks to me that at least two automotive students really like instructor Nate Despain. Could it be that they're trying to win him over, or is it Nate that's attempting to do the winning over? #finalsweek #finals #semesterend #graduation #nwti #automotive

We are no longer a second or third option after high school; we're a first choice. Skilled trades fuel our economy! Join the world of VERY essential workers. nwti.edu #nwti #skilledtrades #cte #bringbackthetrades #adhe #careers #nwarkansas #technicaltrades #nursing

WELDING STUDENTS Jeff Middleton (on the left), and Connor Reed (on the right), recently made this custom table for a class project.

The tabletop was made from reclaimed barnwood that was flash-burned, and then clear coat was applied. They used tig-welding techniques to put together the other parts and then to attach them to the tabletop.

And all that only took them two weeks to do while still doing their regular classwork! Nice piece guys, you better get an "A grade" on this one!

Are you interested in being able to produce pieces like these, and a lot of other welding magic? Take a look at our website and see if a career in welding is for you: nwti.edu #nwti #welding #weldersworld #tigwelding #nwarkansas #springdalear #tradeschool #technicalschool
