- Adult Learning provides exposure to the general subject matter and will give an opportunity to learn how much you are interested in either robotics or CAD design, etc.
- The key differentiators with Career Readiness courses are additional hours that provide you with a greater depth of exposure to the subject and more repetitions working with tools, machinery and/or software. Ultimately, these courses are designed to provide you with the training you need to launch your career in the advanced manufacturing industry.
