Cert in CNC Machine Tool Programming

This AEC programme develops skills in programming computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools for automated manufacturing. Coursework covers 2D and 3D design software, technical drawing interpretation, and automated fabrication processes, delivered at the École nationale du meuble et de l'ébénisterie in Victoriaville. The programme totals 300 hours in a hybrid format, with Wednesday evening sessions and in-person Saturday sessions roughly two out of every three weeks. Graduates earn an Attestation d'études collégiales (AEC) and are prepared for roles operating and programming CNC equipment in furniture making, woodworking, and precision machining settings. The programme suits students with prior training or experience in woodworking or machining, though this is presented as a recommendation rather than a formal admission prerequisite.
