Onsite CNC Technical Operator Training
Best Practice Highlight

Clark State Workforce and Business Solutions can create fast, flexible solutions for your training needs. One example of this is our CNC Technical Operator Training, which is also an eligible TechCred credential.

A local manufacturing partner had a need for onsite training as they hired and expanded quickly for a new project. They needed true subject matter experts who could help these new hires become proficient quickly, while staying on the production line. The Clark State team worked to create and deploy an onsite curriculum to quickly meet the need. Below is a testimonial directly from the companies HR department -

"I wanted to say thank you for partnering to establish a first of its kind on-site Machine Operator Training Program - delivered by Clark State. I think you can tell by the smiles in pictures below that it was a success. We are really satisfied with the outcome and will look forward to opportunities of continued partnership.

To the instructors -
The class really enjoyed your 'Chilman' attitude &  benefited from Tim's expert CNC knowledge. Thank you for keeping them engaged and making the training exciting!"
