Production Technician (MSSC-CPT) credential was developed bythe same named council and grew out of the US Department of Labor efforts in the1990’s to develop a credential for manufacturing front line or entry level employees. Theskill sets for a CPT are built on the industrial engineering principles and practices forproduction which are common to all manufacturing and production enterprises. Thus, thecredential is portable and applicable to all manufacturing sectors. These foundationalskills and knowledge are bundled into four broad areas common to the manufacturingsector: Manufacturing Processes & Production, Quality Practices and Measurement,Maintenance Awareness, and Safety.

Strokes not positively identified as across-out are then classified using our extension of Peterson et al.’s method.3.3 Stroke GroupingWe have found that there are two types of errors that can be made in classifying strokes: actualerrors and contextual errors. Actual errors are straightforward, incorrect classifications, such aspart of a beam in a free body diagram that was mislabeled as an equation stroke. Contextualerrors are more subtle and depend on the situation in which a stroke appears. Consider the letter“F”, which appears frequently in both free body diagrams and equations
