Contract/Custom Training

New Mexico State University - Carlsbad, through its Manufacturing Sector Development Program (MSDP), offers a variety of technical training programs, designed to enhance the skill level of employed workers or provide basic skills to those who may be entering the workforce for the first time.

Persons who are interested in acquiring basic skills to qualify for entry-level positions in business or industry, but are not interested in an academic program, may find that our career enhancement training meets their needs.  These specialized college-credit classroom training programs concentrate on core subjects that, when mastered, improve chances for employment and/or advancement.  The training time is reduced, the training schedule is flexible, and competent, experienced instructors provide the learning.

MSDP will attempt to place students who are unemployed in internships with local employers during their final semester, thus allowing them to get on-the-job experience while still in the training program.

Career enhancement programs include: 

·        Auto CAD Technician - 9 or 11 credits.

·        Commercial HVCR Systems Repair Technician - 21 credits.

·        Residential HVCR Systems Repair Technician - 25 credits.

·        Industrial Maintenance Technician I - 16 credits.

·        Industrial Maintenance Technician II - 13 credits.

·        Industrial Maintenance Technician III - 9 credits.

·        Basic Machining Technician - 18 credits.

·        Basic Welding Technician - 21 credits.

·        Facilities Maintenance Technician I (Custodian) - 9 credits.

·        Facilities Maintenance Technician II (Repairer I) - 10 credits.

·        Facilities Maintenance Technician III (Repairer II) - 13 credits.

Customized contract training is also available.  MSDP has provided training in mine maintenance, call center operations, and HAZMAT refresher. Negotiations are currently underway with area employers to provide training in heavy equipment operation, GPS basics, water systems operations, and custodial training.  Other technical offerings can be arranged.
