This 3-year program is divided into modules with classes at Hennepin Technical College, Minneapolis, and the Bühler Apprenticeship Workshop in Plymouth, MN.

All training classes, tools, books, computer and uniforms are paid for by Bühler (contingent upon successful completion and employment commitment).
