change significantly to reflect the profusion of technical advances in the last two decades ofthe twentieth century. Pertinent manufacturing technology changes include implementation ofnew and more diverse materials, improved and more varied and more precise processing,automation and controls, and computer aided manufacturing (CAM). This progress requireschanges in training materials and program curriculum to reset and then renew the basic technicalskills required of manufacturing technologists and technicians. In addition, more radical changesare being implemented in many industries that have little to do with technical skills required forplant operations. Quality management has been introduced into many facilities worldwide eitherunder the
