PURPOSE: This two-semester program prepares students for entry-level jobs in Additive Manufacturing and (CNC) machining. This program is offered at our Chester Campus. All career-technical degrees are guided by advisory committees comprised of local business leaders.

CREDENTIALS:  A Career Studies Certificate (CSC) is a program of study typically less than one year in length with a major in a career-technical area. Students receiving a CSC intend to pursue immediate employment.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS: Students must meet Brightpoint admission requirements. New students should work with their New Student Navigator to get ready for their first semester. They can also email getstarted@brightpoint.edu for assistance. Continuing students should work with their faculty advisor on academic planning and graduation requirements.

PROGRAM OUTCOMES: By the completion of this program, students will be expected to demonstrate an introductory level of competency in the following skills:

  1. Design a simple part with hands-on application of a CAD program.
  2. Understand the processes used in additive manufacturing for a range of materials and applications.
  3. Develop a program using a CNC machine for the manufacture of a simple part, using the principles of Cartesian coordinates and using G and M codes.
