The East Bay Workforce Development Boards, along with AMBayArea and the Bay Area Community Colleges have developed a resource listing online manufacturing courses and training providers. At this site you can filter / search for and find a wide range (over 1400) different online courses. You can then click through to the training provider site to purchase directly (or in some cases there are free courses - which you can filter by). This is a great way to find classes that you (or your employees) might want to take. And most of these classes are self-paced, so you can start whenever you want.

In addition, we’ve included Bay Area Community College in-person manufacturing classes (over 600) to this site as well. So if you want something in-person, you can search specifically for those classes. NOTE: most community college classes are starting within the next week or so, so check it out now!   https://ambayarea.com/mfgcoursecatalog/
