Wenatchee Valley College's Industrial Technology Machining program is designed to meet the needs of those entering or working in the machining industry. With advances in machine and computer technology, the machining industry is undergoing change and creating job opportunities for skilled employees. Machinists are needed in areas such as aerospace, electronics, food processing, automotive repairs, public utility districts, county and city government transportation departments, specialty tool and equipment manufacturing, food packing plants and warehouses. WVC's machining courses provide students with fundamental machining skills and experiences using current machining technologies and techniques. Instruction covers conventional turning, milling and grinding, as well as basic programming, set up and operation of CNC machine tools. Other subjects include shop safety, reading engineering drawings, shop mathematics, machine tool theory, as well as lean manufacturing and other skills currently required by the machining/manufacturing industry. In addition, students will be required to complete a job shadowing experience and a program culmination capstone project.
