Career advice

I have only OJT for CMM programming (and everything else), no formal education/credentials. I plan on testing for a ASQ QA/QC Tech certificate in the fall/winter. Other than that, I have no idea what I can do to help myself get a "leg-up" in this field. I would like to advance in it, though, since I have found I enjoy it and I'm pretty decent at it so far. So, any career advice?

  • Ya know there was some talk at NACMA about the need/desire for a certified CMM programmer, and the associated levels/bodies of knowledge. I think it would be a good thing, some do not. Who knows, maybe one day we can get a cert, that would prove our competence to anyone who was curious. I for one like that idea a lot.

    Any way I suggest you go into farming, ranching, OTR truck driving, Child Care, basically something that can make you happy.
