Class descriptions

Accounting Occupations—If you earn money, you’ll want to keep track of it, and accounting shows you easy ways to do that.  You’ll learn how to prepare income statements and balance sheets. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn software such as Excel, Word, QuickBooks Pro and Peachtree Accounting.  The class prepares students for entry-level employment in office settings and advanced training.  Cerritos, Fullerton, and Westwood Colleges grant advanced placement and/or credits to students who complete the course with a grade of A or B.

Introduction to Automotive TechnologyIf you love cars, you’ll want to learn all the basic automotive systems, from brakes and their components to the electrical system and its parts.  In this class you’ll learn how to change fluids, perform a safety inspection and document service needs.  By the end of the class you’ll be able to disassemble, inspect and service drum and disc brakes and adjust brake fluids and learn what every component in the car does.  

Automotive Technology—As an advanced student, you’ll learn servicing procedures, how to identify component parts, diagnose faults, replace parts, and rebuilding, repair, and adjustment procedures.  The course prepares you for advanced training and for further technical education.

Business Technology—You will learn to type, organize paperwork, compose business letters, build databases to output spreadsheets, and create PowerPoint slide presentations, all using industry-standard software.

Stagecraft TechnologyYou will learn to create and design scenery, props, lighting and sound for theatrical productions.  Scene construction involves using carpentry, props and paint to bring a production to life.  Lighting design sets the visual mood, and sound design makes sure the audience hears what the production author and director want them to hear.   You’ll also learn to operate a variety of production equipment, including construction tools and equipment, mixing boards, microphones, rigging and curtain equipment; and lights, spotlights, border light and fixtures; and create and plan production schedules. .
