Listowel District Secondary School has received a boost to their manufacturing technology classroom.
A donation from the Canadian Tooling & Machining Association through its Career Ready program.
The donation consists of two brand new industry standard lathes valued at over $50,000.
This comes as the manufacturing industry evolves and the demand for highly skilled CNC and manual machinists reaching a critical point.
Tyler Campbell, Manufacturing Teacher at LDSS says having access to modern, reliable equipment is the difference between a student who understands the concepts and a student who is ready to hit the shop floor running.
