Test Machine Shop Skills

In order to maintain a safe, organized and productive environment in the Florida Tech machine shop. All students must complete a mandatory twenty (32) hours of machine shop and cam lab training before they can enter the Machine shop. Students that do not have an access badge can only enter the Machine shop and cam lab for their scheduled training sessions or formal classes. Students cannot work on a project while training because this interferes with the training outline. A training schedule will be set at the outset. Individuals will have specific days and times to report for training. We will only allow two (2) rescheduled sessions so it is imperative that students avoid missed training sessions. The training will be scheduled within a window of no more than thirty (30) days to complete. Time spent in formal classes can be used toward the training requirement. The institution of a mandatory training policy will help eliminate the problems the shop is having with students damaging equipment and help them avoid dangerous work situations. Training will also benefit students with the designing and building of projects. At the end of the thirty hours of training a skills and written test are

Administered students must pass the test to gain shop access. Please read and sign the below agreement.
