Opportunity Knocks is a non-paid internship program for high school students that allows them to take advantage of job shadow experienced CNC Machinists in a real-world working environment while earning school credit.
The semester course, which takes place at Ketchie Inc., offers a real-world learning experience. Students attend sessions four days a week, with three days dedicated to shadowing experienced CNC machinists on the shop floor. The remaining day is spent in a classroom setting, where they use the Craftsmen With Character curriculum to slow down and discover dignity and purpose in work, character traits, and what is truly important in life.
As students gain valuable insight into machining, they also observe virtuous skills in action daily by their mentors. The impact on their lives will be as significant personally as it is professionally.
