Recently the GOALS team partnered with Labette Community College’s workforce education and career training program, and through that relationship a total of ten GOALS participants have received a certificate of completion for the Introduction to Manufacturing class! The Introduction to Manufacturing is a very basic course designed to introduce individuals to the manufacturing community and the opportunities in the field. After completion of this course, students are able to demonstrate competency in reading and interpreting basic blueprints, drafting, OSHA, shop safety, and basic workplace math. Shop safety is a very important component of this course. Students are introduced to procedures, standards, and general industry safety that are covered within OSHA. After successful completion of this course, students receive their OSHA 10 certificate from KDOL.
