Detailed Program Information


Description: The Certificate of Completion (CCL) in CAD/CAM/CNC II builds on the skills and knowledge developed by the student in the Level I Program. The additional courses are designed to improve the student's understanding of the manufacturing processes employed in a modern manufacturing business to produce the CAD designs into an end product. The focus of these classes is to understand the limitations and capabilities of the manufacturing equipment in producing precision products. All courses apply to the AAS in Manufacturing Technology CAD/CAM/CNC option should the student desire to pursue additional education.
