Who is a good candidate for the FAME program?

Candidates for FAME should be career-oriented, academically prepared students seeking rewarding work who thrive within highly regimented, hands-on programs and are aiming to advance quickly in their career. 
 

The ideal candidate is a college-ready high school graduate interested in pursuing a concentrated two-year, debt-free degree and looking to gain a practical set of valuable and transferable technical skills. Students must be 18 or older upon entering their first semester. FAME also accepts incumbent workers looking to change their career path and veterans who would like to work in the manufacturing industry.

Is FAME a virtual or in-person program?

Manufacturing is a hands-on industry, and because of that our training does require participants to complete in-person lessons. AMT is an in-person program dedicated to preparing students for a career in manufacturing where graduates will perform in an in-person work environment.

What are the Advanced Manufacturing Technician career pathways?

AMT graduates will receive an associate degree in applied science in Engineering Technology and 1,800 hours of on-the-job training.  Upon graduation, AMT’s on-the-job work experience and education can propel them into a full-time career in manufacturing.  Additionally, FAME AMT graduates may also pursue a bachelor’s degree in Engineering Technology through our partnership with OSU-OKC.  AMT graduates may also pursue engineering or engineering technology bachelor’s degrees at the school of their choice.
