Industrial maintenance technician training in Colorado

9 industrial maintenance programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free

3 schools offer these industrial maintenance programs, and Colorado has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did. One school runs 6 of these 9 programs, so the typical figures lean heavily on its prices and results.

Industrial machinery mechanics, maintenance workers and millwrights install, maintain and repair factory equipment and other industrial machinery. Most have a year or more of training after high school, some a two-year degree in industrial maintenance, and most millwrights learn the trade in a three- or four-year apprenticeship.1

In Colorado, 7 of the 9 programs take students without a high school diploma and 2 ask for earlier courses first.

By kind, the 9 programs here are industrial maintenance certificate or diploma (5 programs), mechatronics and automation (3 programs) and industrial maintenance (associate degree, 1 program).

Where the Colorado industrial maintenance program numbers come from

Which Colorado industrial maintenance programs are on this list?

These are the industrial maintenance programs Colorado approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).9 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what Colorado offers.

How the prices and results of Colorado industrial maintenance programs are measured

Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.

How reliable are the Colorado figures?

The US Department of Labor's own results site lists Colorado among the states with "known data quality concerns".10 The figures here are shown as the state reported them; check them with the school before you enroll.
