Transportation, Distribution and Logistics

Overview

This Career Cluster® is focused on planning, management, and movement of people, materials, and goods by road, pipeline, air, rail, and water and related professional support services such as transportation infrastructure planning and management, logistics services, mobile equipment, and facility maintenance.

The Employability Skills for Career Readiness Standards must be an integrated component of all CTE course sequences.


Automotive Technology Program of Study with Complementary Course Standards

The Automotive Technology program provides students with instruction in the operational and scientific nature of the automotive component systems including fuel, intake, exhaust, ignition, lubrication, braking, heating and cooling, electrical, and suspension systems. This program is aligned with the NATEF Maintenance & Light Repair (MLR) program standards.

These Standards have been revised to include standards for complementary course(s) and introduces course sequencing after each Performance Indicator which was formerly shown in the Curriculum Frameworks.

The Supplemental Program Resources Document combines information originally found in the Program of Study and Equipment List Documents as well as the Crosswalks that were previously listed at the end of each set of program standards.


Aviation Maintenance Technician

The Aviation Maintenance Technician program will introduce students to the operational and scientific nature of the aviation maintenance industry. This program will introduce students to safe working habits, components of a reciprocating engine, aircraft control systems, and avionics systems.

Aviation Maintenance Technician (SY 2022-23 was the last year offered as a 3-year program)

The Aviation Maintenance Technician program will introduce students to the operational and scientific nature of the aviation maintenance industry. This program will introduce students to safe working habits, components of a reciprocating engine, aircraft control systems, and avionics systems.

Students who started the program of study in or prior to the 2022-23 school year will complete program sequence as stated in the 2022-23 CTE Course Catalog. The Level 3 course for students who started the program of study in or prior to the 2022-23 school year will be offered through the 2024-25 school year.


Aviation Technology Program of Study with Complementary Course Standards

The Aviation Technology program introduces student on the principles of flight, the aircraft flight environment, aircraft performance standards, flight controls, metrology, radio communications, flight planning, FAA regulations, navigation, the human body in flight, airman decisions making, accident prevention, Airman Information Manual, and the fundamentals of instrument flight. This course prepares the students to take the FAA Part 61.109 Private Pilot Written Exam
