Advanced Manufacturing https://smithtecadmin.wixsite.com/website/manufacturing-technology Advanced Manufacturing Client and Student Expectations Matthew Niedzielski mniedzielski@smithtec.org Amanda Thomas athomas@smithtec.org The Advanced Manufacturing Program at Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School is designed to teach all students the required skills for a lifelong career in the diverse and technological field of metalworking through the use of various machine tools. The extensive 4-year program provides students with a baseline knowledge of metallurgy, lean manufacturing theory and career opportunities in the field, while delivering a comprehensive knowledge of machine tool operations, precision measurement, CNC control operation, 3D solid modeling (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) procedures. Students are trained in the efficient applications related to design creation, manufacturing best practices, precision operations and finishing techniques taking design ideas from creation to prototype to manufactured products. Wherever possible, 3D models and manipulatives are used for a hands-on & visual/spatial learning environment, through the use of software, 3D printing and machined parts. Students can earn industry credentials to provide additional evidence of knowledge for career placement such as the MACWIC Level 1 and 2 certifications and their OSHA 10 card. Students also develop the best educational background to transition into a two or four-year college to pursue an Engineering degree. Current articulation agreements allow for up to 12 college credits to Springfield Technical Community College in a Mechanical Engineering program with an option to transfer to a Bachelor’s program through Northwestern University, hosted on-site at STCC.

FAQs How do I know if my class is canceled? Occasionally due to unforeseen circumstances, Smith Vocational Adult Community Education must cancel a class. Canceled classes are made up (same day of week and time) by extending the finish date of the course unless other arrangements are made between the instructor and the class and approved by the director. When day school is canceled due to snow conditions or other weather or emergency events, evening classes are also canceled. Look for the Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School cancellation notices on the following stations: WWLP-TV Springfield Channel 22 and WGGB-TV Springfield Channel 40 . In the event day classes are not canceled and the weather worsens, if a decision to cancel evening classes is made, it will be relayed to the same stations by 4 pm. (If evening classes are going to be held as usual, there will be no notice). What is your refund policy? 1. All tuition for a course must be paid in full prior to the start date of the course. 2. If a class is canceled for any reason by Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School all monies collected up to that point shall be fully refunded. 3. If an enrolled student terminates before the scheduled start of class, they shall receive a refund of all monies collected, minus a 10% administrative fee of the total cost of the course, whether or not the full tuition has been collected at the time of the student's cancellation. 4. If an enrolled student terminates their enrollment after the start of the class, they shall forfeit the right to any refund. What are scheduled days off?
