Geometric, Machining Training Solutions partner to offer training programs

Manufacturing software provider Geometric, Scottsdale, Ariz., and Machining Training Solutions (MTS), a developer of CNC simulation-based training systems in Longwood, Fla., have partnered to address the lack of skilled CAD/CAM programmers and CNC operators for advanced computerized machines.

The companies have joined forces to deliver training programs at Eastern Florida State University to help fill the growing demand for skilled advanced technology positions critical for leading U.S. manufacturers competing on a global scale.

The training programs use Geometric’s feature-based CAMWorks® CAD/CAM system and MTS’s interactive PC- and mobile-platform training programs to allow students to learn real-world manufacturing in a virtual environment.
