Numerical Control Programming (Vocational Certificate B) Pathway

In the Numerical Controlled Programming classes at Cowley College, students are trained on Mastercam, which is the industry standard program for programming CNC machines. Students will learn how to create geometry, turn that geometry into solids and surfaces, and then program the parts created with toolpaths so that they can then be machined. This will include programming lathes, mills, and routers. Students will learn how to pick the proper tools, calculate feeds and speeds along with how to program multi-axis machines. With this training, the students will have the opportunity to work in one of the largest growing industries in the country.
