Manufacturing workers are in high demand — and employers are paying for qualified talent. Education professionals have great influence over student career pathways, and today’s economy has great opportunities for students who are ready to become creators in our growing manufacturing industry. For many students, the best pathway to these careers is through a community or technical college, and we want to help students in communities across the state become aware of the potential that exists right in their own backyard.
