Case Study: Catawba Valley Community College trains the local workforce with Mastercam

Catawba Valley Community College - Customer Case Study

Catawba Valley Community College (CVCC) faced the challenge of finding a powerful yet easy-to-use CAD/CAM software to train students and close the manufacturing skills gap for local employers in North Carolina. To prepare its students for machining careers, the college needed a solution that would equip them with the skills demanded by area manufacturers.

The college implemented Mastercam, including Mastercam Mill, Dynamic Motion technology, and Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS. This solution provided the flexibility and depth of features needed for both novice students and manufacturing professionals. The results were highly successful, with students winning competitions and graduating with the credentials employers seek. Mastercam's software was credited with changing how students machine and played a central role in CVCC's efforts to rebuild the local economy by providing a skilled workforce.
