More about the Advanced Manufacturing Center
The Advanced Manufacturing Center is funded by a $2.5 million grant from the U.S. Dept. of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) and additional dollars from SCTCC. Groundbreaking on the project was held early October, 2022.
The Advanced Manufacturing Training Lab at SCTCC expands and renovates current space, installs state-of-the-art equipment, and creates a learning environment for students that will mirror their experience while working in industry. The programs that will benefit from the lab include: CNC and Advanced Machining; Computer-Aided Design Manufacturing; Computer-Aided Mechanical Design; Energy & Electronics; and Welding/Fabrication.
In addition to improved facilities for SCTCC programs, the lab expands training opportunities for those currently in the workforce, which supports the creation and retention of high-quality, in-demand jobs throughout the St. Cloud region, particularly for unemployed and underemployed individuals.
