CINCINNATI MANUFACTURING CERTIFICATES

The Cincinnati Manufacturing Certificates (CMC) program is a training course available at no cost to individuals seeking to sharpen their skills and obtain production technician certifications sought after by nine different manufacturing sub-industries. The CMC program equips laid off or low-earning individuals with the high-tech skills and knowledged needed within the manufacturing industry.

CMC uses the national training and certification curriculum developed by the Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (MSSC) to provide 140 hours of education and testing on topics such as hazardous material safety, blueprint reading, and machine operations.

Trainees can earn up to four national MSSC Production Certifications in:

• Quality
• Safety
• Production Processes
• Maintenance Awareness

The certifications demonstrate to employers that the applicant is highly qualified to meet the performance expectations of a production technician. The MSSC Production Certifications can also help increase access to promotions, higher pay, and job security.

Upon successful completion of the program, CMC staff will help graduates secure job interviews with area companies.  Trainees are provided with a stipend over the course of the training and resources for transportation.
