Tooling U maps its online training classes to the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS) Standards. These standards provide individuals in the machining and metal-forming industries with a way to validate their knowledge and skills in the trade. To become certified in a specific NIMS standard, individuals must meet performance requirements and pass a series of multiple-choice tests.
For any test, preparation is key. These links match each NIMS test with the Tooling U classes that can increase your knowledge and help you prepare. While our classes cannot guarantee success, our focused content and online tools can get you started in the right direction.
