skillsets (technical and employability) that are needed in the region's manufacturing industry. Members
can expect to see a greater awareness of manufacturing careers in the region, greater preparedness by
program graduates for these careers, and ultimately a reduction in costs associated with recruiting,
hiring, and training entry-level workers.
