Manufacturers and potential employees alike are experiencing a workforce-related disconnect.

Companies are unable to land qualified employees to fill their more than 3,000 available roles. Separately, individuals are unaware of the professional training, growth and opportunities manufacturing offers and how to qualify for them.

Our expert Talent Team, made up of the Workforce Connect Manufacturing Sector Partnership and the Early College, Early Career 

team, works directly with partner manufacturers to build a dedicated talent pipeline through various professional training programs that qualify people for well-paying, stable manufacturing jobs. In the end, the gap is bridged between jobseekers and job fillers.
