The Precision Machining Program consists of classroom and shop learning experiences which will permit the student successfully completing the program to be qualified as an entry-level machinist. Major contact areas covered in the program are machine shop safety; measuring instruments; blueprint reading; operation of general machine tools such as drill presses, mills, saws, lathes, grinders, and heat treating equipment. In addition, students will gain valuable experience in the Job Shop course through the design and production of customer projects. (Hours to be arranged by Instructor). A focal point of the Precision Machining program is instruction in the programming set-up, and operation of the computer numerical control (CNC) equipment. Apprenticeships may be available with local machine shops. Upgrading by local machinists is another option without achieving either a degree or a certificate. Students may start classes in August or January
