M E TAL CASTING CERT I F I C AT E 

Virtually nothing moves, turns, rolls, or flies 

without the benefit of cast metal products so 

the metal casting industry plays a key role in 

all the major sectors of our economy. There 

are castings in locomotives, cars, trucks, 

aircraft, office buildings, factories, schools 

and homes. Mohawk College in partnership 

with the Canadian Foundry Association 

(CFA) has designed this certificate for those 

who are currently employed in the foundry, 

metal casting and related industries to provide 

them with opportunities to upgrade their 

skills. It will also provide an opportunity for 

people employed in other fields to explore 

metal casting. The program has been 

designed to provide the theoretical and

quality control concepts that are currently 

needed in the Metal Casting Industry.
