Introduction
This degree will not only offer students gunsmithing proficiency, but students will have an associate's degree, which may be transferrable to certain 4-year colleges and universities for future education. It will also include courses in communications, math, and business, which will better prepare students to be business owners and managers.
While many online and correspondence gunsmithing programs are available, BRTC believes in preparing students not just for the now but also for the future. To that end, gunsmithing at BRTC will be an academic program and ensure academic rigor and integrity. To do so, BRTC feels including the following will not only skillfully prepare students but help keep students safe:
- Students will be supervised throughout the program by program subject-matter and curricular experts in the proper machining, repair, and handling of firearms;
- Students will be instilled with strong safety skills to protect them in the workplace, their customers, and others who will be in business with them;
- Students’ knowledge and skills will be carefully assessed, allowing for additional instruction in weak areas; and
- Finally, students’ attention to safety, precision, and accuracy will reduce their future liability and enable them to produce safe, effective work.
