SolidCAM For Education

for teachers at technical schools, further education institutions and technical colleges as well as trainers in the metal sector

In the changing world of manufacturing, it's super important to ensure students have the right skills for the job. But there's a problem: studies predict there won't be enough skilled workers in the future. By 2030, there could be millions of manufacturing jobs left empty. This is not just bad for businesses; it could also hurt the whole world's economy.

In the dynamic manufacturing landscape, ensuring that students are equipped with the necessary skills to thrive in the industry is crucial. Looking ahead to 2024 and beyond, the looming skills gap poses a significant challenge. Studies predict a substantial shortfall in skilled workers, with millions of manufacturing jobs forecasted to remain unfilled by 2030. This not only impacts individual industries but also has a considerable effect on the global economy.

The solution? Making Students 'Industry-Ready'

To bridge this gap and cultivate the next generation of talent, educators play a pivotal role. Technical schools, further education institutions, and technical colleges serve as the breeding grounds for the skilled workforce of tomorrow. As experienced instructors, you possess the power to shape the future of education and prepare students for success in the manufacturing sector.

Case Study: From "museum" to learning factory of the future

The Hohentwiel Gewerbeschule in Singen, with 128 teachers and a total of 1,800 students in 12 school types, is technically and didactically up to date. Industry is desperately looking for employees with CAM skills, especially because CNC machines are becoming increasingly complex, such as multi-axis CNC turning/milling centers like the CTX 500. The HGS is a great example of what dedicated teachers can achieve.
