Overview
Course overview
Two months of computer-aided manufacturing: reading the drawing as a machinist does, tooling and cutting data, 2D and 3D milling toolpaths, turning toolpaths, simulation, post-processing to G-code and the setup sheet that goes to the machine.
SyllabusHands-on
What you will
actually build
The syllabus is arranged so every module produces an asset rather than a set of notes. You will cover machining & cam fundamentals, 2d milling toolpaths, 3d milling & turning, simulation, g-code & setup, and finish with a live project built on Mastercam, SolidWorks CAM (overview), CNC simulator. Modules run in the order a real project runs: foundations first, then the core skills, then applied work under supervision, then the portfolio and interview preparation that turn all of it into an offer letter.

The working loop
Learn it. Build it. Make it yours.
Every project moves through the same loop: understand the brief, build with guidance, then explain the decisions behind your work.
- 01
Understand
Break a real requirement into a clear plan and the right tools.

Why techcadd
Why students choose techcadd
There are many places to learn this in Phagwara and the brochure syllabus looks similar at all of them. What differs is who teaches, whether you ever touch real work, and whether anyone picks up the phone after you have paid. techcadd has trained students across Punjab since 2016 on the same model: small batches, working practitioners as trainers, client projects as coursework.
Trainers who still do the work
Your trainer is not a full-time lecturer. They deliver client projects for techcadd’s services arm, so examples in class are current rather than a case study from five years ago.
Live projects, real consequences
You work on genuine client requirements under supervision. This is where a portfolio comes from, and it is the first thing an interviewer asks to see.
Small batches and open lab hours
Batches stay small enough that a trainer sees your screen daily. Lab time runs outside class hours and doubt sessions continue until the concept lands.
Internship letter and certificate
Every student finishes with an industry-recognised certificate and a documented internship on real work, accepted for university industrial training requirements.
A placement cell that persists
Mock interviews, CV reviews and drives with hiring partners across Phagwara, Jalandhar and North India, repeated after a rejection, not abandoned.
Since 2016, 25,000+ students
A decade of hiring relationships in Punjab is why a call from our placement cell gets answered and why local employers know what our certificate means.
The case for itWhy this programme
Why this programme
is worth your year
CAM Programming is used every day in tooling & moulds, automotive components, precision machining and agricultural machinery.
Build skills that hold up beyond the classroom.
What separates this from a playlist of tutorials is supervision on real work. From the second half of the course you build on live client projects with a trainer beside you, make decisions that have consequences, and correct them the following week. That loop is the skill. No employer in Phagwara will take your word for it without work they can inspect.
Be realistic about the money. A fresher who finishes with a working portfolio starts near the bottom of the band and moves quickly; someone who finishes with a certificate and nothing to show does not. The difference is entirely what you built.
The alternative is what most people try first: free videos, a cheap online course, six months of drifting, and knowledge you cannot demonstrate. A structured programme with live projects, a mentor who corrects you, an internship letter and a placement cell that actually calls employers is the difference between knowing the subject and being hired to do it.
Students reach the Phagwara centre from Banga, Nakodar, Kartarpur and the university belt, and the weekend batch exists so a job or a degree does not have to be paused to attend.
- 01
Project-based training
Each module ends in a drawing, model or program you complete yourself.
- 02
Manufacturing workflow
Taught the way design offices and tool rooms pass work from drawing to model to machine.
- 03
Mentor review
Small batches and a trainer who checks your work, not just your attendance.
- 04
Phagwara centre or online
Attend at our Phagwara centre or join the same batch live online.
- 05
Portfolio for interviews
Drawing sets, 3D models and programs ready to show.
- 06
Certificate on completion
A techcadd Phagwara certificate once you complete the course and its project.

EligibilityWho can do
Who can do
this course
The CAM Programming course is built for people at six different starting points, and the batch is deliberately mixed. What matters far more than your background is turning up consistently and finishing what each module asks you to build.
- 01
Mechanical engineering students
B.Tech, diploma and ITI students who need the design software their trade uses.
- 02
Workshop and shop-floor staff
Machinists, fitters and supervisors moving from the machine to the design or programming desk.
- 03
Freshers
Build the portfolio and interview practice that a first role actually asks for.
- 04
Working professionals
Weekend batches and 1-on-1 mentoring for people training without taking leave.
- 05
Entrepreneurs
Enough hands-on depth to build, brief or evaluate the work yourself.
The toolchain behind the craft

What made it click for me was the lab time. You can sit after class and someone will still explain it until you get it.
KMKaran MehtaB.Tech Student · Phagwara - Google
I travelled in for the weekend batch and it was worth every trip. Small batch, real work, no time wasted on theory nobody uses.
ASArshdeep SinghTrainee Engineer · Adampur - Google
The course got me interview-ready faster than I expected. My interviewer asked to see my project and that was the whole conversation.
PRPooja RaniGraduate · Kartarpur

I was switching careers and worried I would be behind. Half the batch was doing the same thing, and nobody made it awkward.
SKSimran KaurCareer Switcher · Phagwara - Google
I joined with almost no background and finished with a project I could actually show. The trainer never rushed the basics.
RSRohit SharmaBCA Student · Banga - Google
techcadd’s placement cell kept calling me for drives until I was placed. That persistence mattered more than anything else.
