In the Vocational Training Course in Machining our aim is to prepare people and professionals in all the skills required by a machine operator and a mechanical component fitter in a sector with a high level of employability. At the end of the course, students can enter the labour market directly or continue their academic career by completing an advanced training course.
The equipment and technology that students will experience first-hand at Politeknika Txorierri include:
The professional modules of this course are the following:
Machining processes
In this course you will learn to carry out machining processes by chip removal, forming and special procedures, preparing, programming, operating machine tools and verifying the product obtained, complying with quality, safety and environmental protection specifications.
Transversal competences through ETHAZI methodology
At Politeknika Txorierri we work using the ETHAZI methodology in which the student, in addition to acquiring the technical competences that he/she must obtain, achieves other transversal competences that will help him/her in his/her professional career.
That is, teamwork, communication, involvement, initiative, responsibility…. To this end, we work in the classroom through real-life based challenges.
ACADEMIC CHALLENGES
Robot challenge: Inter-modular challenge, the aim of which is to motivate students in the technical knowledge related to the training course by designing and manufacturing a creative prototype using, among others, 3D printing to obtain certain parts.
Automation challenge: Inter-cycle challenge, where we work as a team. Our Machining students manufacture the parts designed by the students of our Advanced VET course of Design in Mechanical Manufacturing and palletise them together with the students of our Advanced VET course of Automation and Industrial Robotics.
LEARNING CHALLENGES
Makila challenge: In this challenge we put into practice the technical knowledge learnt in the different modules of the course and we carry out a technical-solidarity project to educate our students in values of solidarity and commitment to our environment. We designed and made an exclusive and personalised walking stick for a senior citizen from the local retirement home.
CHALLENGES FOR COMPANIES
Tooling challenge: An industrial company asks Politeknika Txorierri to carry out various jobs and our group participates in all phases of the project, especially in the manufacture of certain parts.
And then what?
Students will be able to access the following opportunities after completing the Vocational Training course in Machining.
