    Fast track your career in manufacturing.

Are you ready to fast your career in Manufacturing? Look no further than QCC’s Center for Workforce Development & Continuing Education’s new Fast Track Work Ready Manufacturing program. This 48-hour course enables students to earn a Manufacturing Advancement Center Workforce Innovation Collaborative (MACWIC) Level 1 Certification for jobs such as a CNC Operator, Production Technician and Quality Control Inspector.

As part of this course students will tour International Ceramics Engineering, located in Worcester, which specializes in the design and manufacture of unique components. There students will receive additional work readiness skills in order to fill important middle skill roles within manufacturing companies. Middle skill jobs are those jobs that require education beyond high school but not a four-year degree. The National Skills Coalition notes that middle skill jobs make up the largest part of the labor force in the U.S.

The course will be offered on Monday, July 16 – Thursday July 26 from 8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. (no class on Friday) at Quinsigamond Engineering, Science, and Technology (QuEST) Center in the CNC lab on the college’s main campus, 670 West Boylston Street, Worcester.

Successful completion of this course can be credentialed for three credits in the Manufacturing Technology associate degree program at QCC.
