Pre-employment MillwrightProgram Description This hands-on 12-week program is a great way to start your career in the trade. Millwrights, also known as industrial mechanics, install, troubleshoot and maintain industrial equipment. They have a wide range of knowledge in areas such as machine assembly, blueprint reading, bearings, hydraulics, machine alignment, and power transmission systems. They learn basic machine shop and welding techniques, as well as the use of precision measurement tools and testing equipment. During the first eight weeks, the program focuses on all course material received by a first year millwright apprentice – machine shop skills and technology.
