The Place to Develop In-Demand Skills
Keep your team at the forefront with tailored training to master in-demand skills and become proficient in the critical tools used in modern manufacturing.
Develop In-Demand Skills
Design for Manufacturing
High quality products start with good design, but real-world design training can be hard to find. With the Manufacturing Collaborative, you’ll learn the foundations and best practices of design for manufacturing and gain the skills and confidence to create lighter, stronger, better-performing, and more sustainable products.
Additive Technologies
Work with leading-edge polymer and metal 3D printing technology to create products for real applications and gain the skills to make products faster, cheaper, and with less waste.
Digitization
Deploy advanced 3D scanners to build virtual prototypes, allowing for comprehensive analysis, testing, and optimization of components. You’ll gain the expertise to accelerate creation and iteration processes.
CT Scanning
Work with the tools few manufacturers have access to and develop skills in non-destructive and contactless analysis. You’ll see inside components at every stage of production to identify design flaws and opportunities for improvement.
Metrology
Understand a product with more precision than you ever thought possible. The advanced measurement tools and techniques you’ll learn will enable you to ensure quality and improve accuracy in your future work.
Reverse Engineering
Apply the latest tools to break down a product and understand how it was made and designed. With these insights you’ll learn how to reproduce the product and find opportunities to improve design.
Gain Proficiency with the Latest Tools
In addition to skill-focused training we also provide hands-on training with specific tools at our center at Vermont State University.
