  1. Best PracticesCollaborative Programs Wind Energy Technologies Electro-Mechanical Doug Lindsey, February 25, 2013

  2. History 101 • We stand on top of other’s shoulders, who have gone before us. A mature System. • We work best with known partners – connections. • We practice good communication (regular routine and critical / urgent) is essential. • FUNDING from many sources

  3. SWELT 1996 – Statewide Electronics Leadership MSOE – Electrical Engineer Technician. • Marge Wood – WTCS • Mark Porubsky – Milwaukee MATC • Bill Hodgkinson – • Terri Johnson - WIDS • Bob Strangeway - MSOE

  4. SWELT Products • Original 5 courses for transfer to MSOE DC Fundamentals AC Fundamentals DC & AC Circuit Analysis Digital Electronics Microprocessors And related high school transfer for DC and AC basics.

  5. MSOE Experience Lemons and Lemonade – Junior Level status for entry only…. Extensive developmental work for student success: Calculus bridge courses and calculus based Physics – middle 5th year. Concrete versus Theoretical Thinkers.

  6. Electro-Mechanical • Sherman Ansel: 52 Electronics, Electrical or Electro-Mechanical programs statewide. • “If it had a different color resistor then it became a different program” and with that the separate instructor certification occupational documents. • 2003 Electro-Mechanical difference emphasis (what separates from others).

  7. Wind Energy • 2006 EM with Wind emphasis – ITS model • Jim Gibson – WTCS: Ag / Renewable Energy • Instructor Certification development • Intro to Wind – Train the Trainer • Packaged course curriculum on CurriculumBank

  8. DOE Wind Partners 2008 • Goal of 50% more graduates • MATC – Milwaukee • BTC – Blackhawk • GTC – Gateway • MSTC – Midstate • MPTC – Moraine Park

  9. Four Amigoes NEW Region VP’s of Instruction challenged T&I Deans: Build on common EM core for transfers FVTC – Automation LTC – Wind NWTC – Utility Technician MPTC - Mechatronics

  10. Alignment of EM courses • Motors and Controls • Code – Frequency Drives • PLCs – Basic and Advanced • Mechanicals • Hydraulics and electrical control of hydraulics

  11. Progress / Changes • Original ITS plan became shared program • Added FVTC and NWTC and MATC Madison to grant activities. • Transfers for Gateway, Midstate – 2 current students • 17 credits (25%) at LTC • Intro to Wind – partnered • 2 summers of 7 credits – 30 days

  12. Operation of Shared Sites • Annual review meeting • Smaller partner cohorts • Larger student migration – Summer Issue • Regional approach – saves Lab Investment • Now share Nuclear, Energy Management, Environmental Eng, Water & Waste with same base.

  13. Access and Rescue

  14. Students performing maintenance

  15. GE 1.5 MW on stub

  16. Fun – Rigging with a purpose
