Tool and die makers work with machinery and mechanical equipment to cut, shape and finish tools made of metal, or forge die casts for creating molds for materials made out of metal, plastic, ceramic and more. This program is the 4-year classroom component of the state registered Tool & Die Apprenticeship program. On-the-job training requirements will also be mandated by the terms of the apprenticeship. The classroom program is both academic as well as hands-on and students will spend a significant portion of the class working in the machining labs learning the practical application of the science behind tool and die maker's work.
