M2K Spotlight
Before joining the M2K program in April 2018, Linus worked a part-time job and completed his GED through CCAC. His former principal told Linus about NCC's M2K program. After touring the facility, Linus thought the program would be a great fit for him and he enrolled.

"I learned how to weld when I was 16 and I've always had an interest in working on machines... It's something I wanted to do as a career," Linus said. "NCC gave me that opportunity. It gave me the time and knowledge to work on machines and make parts for real-world experience. I found the instructors very helpful and they made safety a priority."

Linus was offered a position at a local machining company in October. He's looking forward to starting his career and learning as much as he can. Congrats Linus!

New to every BotsIQ student this year is the opportunity to take related instruction through an online manufacturing training curriculum, such as Tooling U-SME and Mastercam University. Teachers and students were introduced to the Tooling U-SME platform during the daylong program.
