Manufacturing Technician Level I Course Added on October 3, 2016

Prepare for a career in the manufacturing industry at Paul D. Camp Community
College
The Division of Workforce Development at Paul D. Camp Community College will offer
Manufacturing Technician Level 1 (MT1) certification, which trains participants on the
critical competencies required for modern manufacturing production and production-
related occupations.
Classes will be held Thursdays, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.,
Oct. 27 through Dec. 16 at the PDCCC Regional Workforce Development Center, 100
North College Drive, Franklin, and will provide participants with the development of high
performance skills through demonstrations, lectures, self-paced studies, labs, technical
presentations, use of proxy technology, critical thinking, problem solving and
individual/group activities. There will be no classes Nov. 24 and 25.
Many manufacturing employers report difficulty in finding qualified workers to fill their
industry-specific needs. There are three factors contributing to the lack of skilled
workers. Those factors are: the increase in technology required for manufacturing, the
retirement of existing workers, and the competition for talent.
“The Manufacturing Skills Institute, which set the national skills standards for MT1
certification in 2009, is partnering with PDCCC to provide this baseline credential
program in the Hampton Roads and Western Tidewater area,” Hayes said. “It will
provide training to address identified technical skill gaps and provide a pathway to
advanced level training and specialized training based on industry requirements for
potential new hires and incumbent employees.”
The MT1 program will address the core competency areas of math and measurement;
spatial reasoning and manufacturing technology, and business acumen and quality, for
skilled production occupations in all sectors of manufacturing.
The cost of this non-credit course is $1,300, which includes certification testing and a lab
workbook. Financial aid and scholarships are available for all students who qualify.
