The Robert C. Byrd Institute (RCBI) is expanding its nationally recognized Machinist Technology/CNC program to meet industry demand for skilled workers.
RCBI, in conjunction with Mountwest Community & Technical College, will launch a new Machinist Technology/CNC class in January to increase the number of students training for available manufacturing jobs in West Virginia and the surrounding region. Prospective students looking to start their career journey or embark on a new path can get started early rather than having to wait until fall 2022, said Charlotte Weber, RCBI director & CEO.
“Manufacturers across the region contact RCBI constantly looking for skilled machinists,” Weber said.

This expansion of our program will increase the pipeline of talent so crucial to the success of these companies.”
