Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Mechanical Manufacturing Engineering - CNC Machining Pathway
The EAL Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Mechanical Manufacturing Engineering has been designed to allow a learner to specialise in one of the pathways listed; Machining Pathway, CNC Machining Pathway, Fitting & Assembly Pathway
Description
In order to achieve this qualification the learner will be required to attain four mandatory units, the required number of optional units and the specified number of additional units, as detailed within the selected pathway.
Learners will be required to create a Portfolio of Evidence to prove their competence in the workplace. Learners should therefore select the units that reflect the job role they carry out to be able to obtain the required workplace evidence.
The overall grading type for this qualification is Pass/Fail. Units will be assessed and endorsed against the learners chosen discipline.
Mandatory Units for all Pathways
QMME2/001 - Complying with statutory regulations and organisational safety requirements
QMME2/002 - Using and interpreting engineering data and documentation
QMME3/003 - Working efficiently and effectively in engineering
Pathway MMB: CNC Machining
Learners must complete one of the following units (Please enter your selected unit during the registration page)
QMME3/030 - Loading and proving CNC machine tool programs
QMME3/031 - Carrying out CNC machine tool programming
Learners must complete any functional pair of the following units (Please enter your selected pair of units during the registration page)
QMME3/032 - Setting CNC turning machines for production
QMME3/033 - Machining components using CNC turning machines
QMME3/034 - Setting CNC milling machines for production
QMME3/035 - Machining components using CNC milling machines
The course duration will vary due to the varied length of the units chosen in each pathway. Cost covers the minimum units required for each pathway.
Extra units can be added at an additional cost of £500 each (these can be purchased here - Additional NVQ Units)
