Attend a free 5-week class through Skill Up Manufacturing.

Did you know that manufacturers in CT need to replace 60,000 workers over the next 10 years? To get started building a future that is challenging, rewarding, in demand, and offers good pay, look no further than Middlesex Community College. MxCC offers a quality manufacturing program to our students by providing the hands-on training valued by employers.

Middlesex Community College is excited to be a participant in a federally-funded program to expand our Manufacturing programs. This program is made possible through the Connecticut Advanced Manufacturing Initiative, which is funded in-part by a $15,000,000 Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. This funding is targeted toward further enhancing and growing Connecticut’s statewide manufacturing education and training infrastructure. It will address the impact of foreign trade on employment and earnings loss. It is also meant to benefit individuals such as high school students and others who have not been in the workforce for a period of time, such as veterans and stay-at-home parents.

Classes are conducted Monday through Thursday late afternoon and evenings from 4:30-10:00 p.m., on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at Wilcox Technical High School in Meriden, and at Vinal Technical High School in Middletown on Wednesday evenings.
