Manufacturing industries in Pennsylvania are in very high demand for driven, skilled individuals to service and repair their sophisticated automation equipment. These technologies require highly trained, skilled technicians and service personnel to be able to troubleshoot and repair this equipment whenever an operational problem develops. There is an extremely large shortage of these skilled people throughout the United States, and manufacturers are willing to pay high wages for these qualified individuals.
In this area, such skill training has been successfully provided to the public for over 20 years by Stew Fink who is a Navy veteran from the Vietnam era and owner/operator of CPU Electronic Services (ICAT)℠ and his staff. Mr. Fink designed his program 23 years ago and named it “Industrial Controls Automation Technologies” – ICAT℠. He has provided qualified graduates to many manufacturers in Pennsylvania and in regions of northern Maryland. Students have come from as far as Juniata County to receive his training.
Having skills with these technologies is a career; not a job. Mr. Fink and his staff provide total support for job placement. Automation becomes more technical and sophisticated each year. These skills provide a excellent income and steady employment. It is for those who want a rewarding, challenging career.

“I searched a long time for a training program that would fit my needs. Many previous courses were either read from a textbook or so task specific that it could not be applied to other concepts. This was not the case here. This program has given me the knowledge I needed to improve myself as a maintenance mechanic and a more marketable employee to prospective employers.”
