### Evaluate CNC Machinist Skills with Confidence

Whether you're onboarding new machinists, conducting annual competency reviews, or certifying team members for advanced CNC operations, this **Machinist Competency Evaluation** form gives you a structured, professional way to assess critical skills across blueprint reading, precision measurement, tool selection, and programming knowledge.

#### Built for Manufacturing & Machine Shop Environments

This template is designed for manufacturing facilities, machine shops, and technical training centers that need to maintain high standards of machinist competency. Evaluate both theoretical knowledge and practical application across the core competencies that define CNC machining excellence.

The form covers:

 - **Blueprint Reading & Interpretation** – GD&T symbols, tolerance analysis, and technical drawing comprehension
 - **Precision Measurement** – Micrometer, caliper, gauge, and CMM proficiency
 - **Tool Selection & Setup** – Cutting tool knowledge, speeds and feeds, and tooling strategies
 - **CNC Programming** – G-code understanding, work offsets, and program editing capabilities
 - **Safety & Quality Control** – Machine safety protocols and inspection procedures

#### How Paperform Streamlines Competency Assessment

With Paperform's flexible form builder, you can customize this evaluation to match your facility's specific equipment, standards, and certification levels. Add conditional logic to reveal advanced questions based on experience level, embed images of blueprints or tool setups for visual assessment, and use the matrix field type to efficiently rate multiple competencies.

**Use [Stepper](https://stepper.io)** to automate what happens after evaluation: route passing scores to your HR system, trigger certification document generation, schedule follow-up training for areas needing improvement, or notify supervisors of newly certified operators—all without manual data entry.

Results are automatically compiled with scoring and can be exported or synced to your learning management system, making it easy to track competency trends across your workforce and maintain compliance with ISO or industry-specific quality standards.
