Welcome to SME's South LA/Orange County Chapter 233, a Platinum Chapter!

VISION
Our collective vision is to foster manufacturing in the community starting at the student level. In order to refill the pipeline of technicians, machinists, welders and engineers we look to start early from junior high and high school and up through 2-4 year colleges. We also aim to provide professional development to fulfill the needs of employers today.

MISSION
Our mission is to inspire creativity and innovation within manufacturing. By engaging with the community and providing the means to move forward we can ensure a bright future for the resurgence of manufacturing in Southern California.
