Thursday July 24 9:00-9:45
Advanced technologies have emerged to increase manufacturers’ productivity. However, manufacturers depend on technical colleges to skill their workforce to implement these advances. By aligning training programs to industry-vetted standard micro-credentials, colleges are providing new affordable and faster pathways to acquisition of skills that stack towards higher degrees and higher paying jobs. CESMII, the national Smart Manufacturing Institute; SACA, the Smart Automation Certification Alliance; and Amatrol, a leader in career and technical education (CTE) training, will be sharing how colleges are accelerating micro-credential-based training programs and states are developing pathways from CTE to 2- and 4-year degrees.
Speakers: Conrad Leiva, VP Ecosystem and Workforce Development, CESMII, Los Angeles, CA; Sue Smith, Executive Program Director, SACA (Smart Automation Certification Alliance), Louisville, KY; Paul Perkins, President, Amatrol, Jeffersonville, IN
