MSSC Certified Production Technician Plus (CPT+) certification provides future employers proof of an individual's skill set by successfully demonstrating hands-on skills in electronic, electrical, fluid power, and mechanical systems.
Skill Boss, developed to meet MSSC standards, is a hands-on skill training & assessment system that can be integrated with any manufacturing program and is required for Certified Production Technician (CPT) Plus certification
Amatrol’s Skill Boss (95-MSB1) offers performance-based assessment for evaluating the skill levels and competencies of future machine operators. This system fits onto a standard tabletop and features an electric motor, variable frequency drive, human-machine interface, pneumatic pick-and-place module, and much more! When this system is set up, it will quality test and sort blocks made from plastic and metal.
Skill Boss was designed to assess the hands-on skills needed by today’s modern manufacturing production areas, including assembly & machine operation. No other system boasts this many technologies in a portable platform.
This system is used by the Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (MSSC) for its Certified Production Technician (CPT) Plus certification. The Skill Boss assessment system, designed to meet MSSC standards, is a hands-on skill assessment system that integrates seamlessly into any manufacturing program. MSSC’s CPT Plus program provides proof of an individual’s ability to perform a wide range of hands-on technical skills in electronics, electrical, fluid power, & mechanical systems.
The CPT Program is an industry-led standards-based training, assessment, and certification system that concentrates on the essential skills and knowledge needed to be a successful carer in advanced manufacturing. The interactive multimedia curriculum for each program is identical and focuses on building foundational workplace skills required for advanced manufacturing careers for areas such as manufacturing processes, maintenance, quality, and safety, as well as cross-functional skills such as customer awareness, communications, teamwork, and workplace conduct. The CPT Plus certification expands on the full CPT credential by providing employees with confirmation that a learner has the comprehensive technical knowledge and hands-on skills required to be immediately productive.
Skills Boss provides the tool you need to teach or evaluate an individual's skills as they install, adjust and troubleshoot components on this fully functional mechatronics system, applicable to both discrete parts and process manufacturing.
Performing a real-world sorting & finishing process, Skill Boss automatically feeds parts into the system where they are rejected or accepts to continue the process. If accepted, the parts are buffed with a polish wheel before a 3-axis robotic pick & place system moves it into "finished goods" based on its material.
The purpose of the Certified Production Technician (CPT) ® 4.0 certification program is to recognize through certification, individuals who demonstrate mastery of the foundational, core competencies of advanced manufacturing production at the entry-level to front-line supervisor through successful completion of the certification assessments.
The Amatrol Skill Boss Logistics offers a performance-based assessment for evaluating the skills and competencies of future supply chain automation technicians.
Amatrol's eAssessment streamlines technical skills assessment and training with assessment tests to individually determine a CTE student's skill level in specific areas to dramatically improve training effectiveness and efficiency while reducing training cost and time.
Agriculture can be considered one of the oldest industries in th world tracing its origin back 12,000 years. What started with small groups of people in various locations figuring out how to domesticate animals and grow their food has become a multi-trillion-dollar global industry.
Over the last few centuries, sparked by a series of industrial revolutions, significant changes have taken place throughout the industry that has shaped agriculture as we know it today. Machinery has replaced manual processes and hand tools. Additionally, technological advances, including computers and the Internet, have enabled agricultural machines and procedures to be more productive and efficient.
As technology continues to advance, agriculture must keep evolving to ensure that productivity keeps pace with an ever-expanding world population. Today’s agricultural experts need experience with more types of technology than ever before.
Agricultural mechanics is a critical component of robust and relevant agriscience programs. With the right equipment, educators can demonstrate how to construct and repair equipment, buildings, and facilities by following architectural and mechanical plans, show mechanical equipment and power systems, and teach hydraulic and pneumatic systems service and repair.
Plants, farms, and animals are the main functions of agriculture. Still, there are additional opportunities in this field. This career pathway covers a variety of careers - ranging from animal science and veterinary science to metal technologies/welding, oil and gas production systems, and energy & natural resources.
