Holds industry-recognized certification
The course provides an introduction to the operation of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machinery for industrial metalworking. Participants will be introduced to the concepts of blueprint reading, interpretation of working drawings, measurements, and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing. Students will study terminology of coordinates, cutter paths, angle cutting, and linear/circular interpolation. Related machining practices in CNC milling and turning will be covered. The shop mathematics concepts of fractions/decimals, metrics, geometry, calculating formulas, and trigonometry will be introduced and used in project-based learning applications. Participants will receive hands-on training and demonstrations on CNC machining equipment and related tools while developing competencies in both the operation and basic programming of equipment controls and inspection of finished parts.For cohort training, there is a minimal charge of $4,800.00 per person for up to 8 students, $4,400.00 per person for up to 10 students, and $4,200.00 per person for 12 students. The cost per student will be pro-rated dependent on the number of students in the class.
Demonstrated competencies through Work Keys assessments and theBennett Mechanical test for mechanical aptitude as designated by WorkOne
