Why CNC Production

Graduates of the CNC Production Certificates program will be well-prepared to embark on a rewarding career as entry-level CNC Machinists and Operators. These professionals play a vital role in manufacturing by effectively setting up and operating computer-controlled or mechanically-controlled machine tools to craft precise parts and tools. With a deep understanding of industry-specific knowledge and hands-on skills acquired through the program, students will confidently navigate machine shops, tool rooms and factory floors, making a tangible impact in the ever-evolving field of manufacturing.

The program is divided into two separate certificates: CNC Production Operator and CNC Production Machinist in order to allow flexibility for employment opportunities.

Completion of the CNC Production Operator Certificate is a prerequisite for CNC Production Machinist Certificate, and students are strongly encouraged to complete both certificates.

CNC Production is also part of the Accelerating Opportunity I-CAPS initiative targeted for students who also participate in an additional required support class.
