Oakland Community College is offering a no-cost, Pre-Apprenticeship program that helps students prepare for apprenticeship or fast track their entry into manufacturing careers. A free information session on the program will be held online, Wednesday, Nov. 17 at 1 p.m.
The session will discuss OCC’s no-cost program that provides students with head start
on a career path in manufacturing with employment or employer-sponsored apprenticeship
opportunities.
Classes for the Pre-Apprenticeship program begin Jan. 10, 2022. The five-week program
teaches basic manufacturing skills such as shop math and blueprint reading and an
opportunity to earn the OSHA 10 and MikeRowe WORKS Employability Skills certifications.
