We can all immediately recognize a person who lifts our spirits and inspires us with their energy and enthusiasm. A recent graduate of Symbol’s advanced CNC program, Gary Chellberg improved his life through technical training.

Gary realized that he needed not just a job, but a career with growth possibilities that would support him and his family. After doing plenty of research, Gary found that CNC was a high-growth field with plenty of earning potential. As he searched for CNC training providers in the Chicagoland area, Gary realized that “Symbol is in a league of its own.”

Gary earned three NIMS (National Institute for Metalworking Skills) certificates from Symbol upon completing courses in Programming, Setup and Operation, Quality Control and Advanced Programming. His first interview at Chips Manufacturing was intended to last only 15 minutes. Two hours later, Gary walked out with not just a job, but the position of Production Supervisor.

Gary now works full time with plenty of overtime, at his first choice company.

“No matter what job or position you’re at, do your very best,” he says. “Always try to do a little better than what’s expected of you.”

Symbol students practice on production machinery and use the same tooling found on virtually every company’s shop floor. The curriculum is designed by and for manufacturing industry professionals.
