Looking to start a new career in manufacturing?
DMACC is offering FREE manufacturing courses for qualified candidates.  The curriculum is endorsed by local employers and provides connections for possible employment.  Our previous welding pilot program started February 28th with 16 students and of the 16 original students, 5 have already been hired full time and the class doesn’t even finish until May 5th!  We anticipate at least 80% of the class to obtain full-time careers immediately as production welders. If there is interest in manufacturing in your community, this training provides a great opportunity for new careers!

1.     CNC Operator Certificate in Ankeny starting May 23rdand completing December 4th.
