One Day Introductory CNC Training Workshop: 13th July 2012

Programme Overview



Semta has teamed up with employers and tooling manufacturers to develop two CNC (Computer Numerical Control) training courses to help engineering and manufacturing companies drive up their CNC performance to world-class level.



The basic one-day workshop introduces delegates to CNC methods. It provides an overview of programming, setting and operating techniques to help delegates become a functional part of the CNC team.



COURSE APPROACH

Our approved provider uses tried and tested training methods to enable delegates to learn effectively.

To ensure your employees and your company get what they need, we will use proven on-line diagnostics to assess delegates’ CNC knowledge before they do the course and discuss with you where you want them to improve. The programme will address these improvement areas and we will assess your employees once again after training. This will give you a clear measure of the level of improvement and demonstrate the return on investment in training for your business.
