Forte" Products to Host Manufacturing Day Plant Event
Program Designed to Expand Knowledge of Manufacturing, Improve Public Perception of Manufacturing Career Opportunities.
Farmington, MO - October 5th, 2018
In celebration of Manufacturing Day 2018, Forte' Products will open its doors to more than 100 students from local schools and technical schools as part of an effort to change people'sperceptions about today's manufacturing environment and draw attention to the outstanding opportunities that a career in manufacturing can provide. Planned activities include facility tours,demonstrations designed to showcase manufacturing technology and careers.
There is an increasing demand for highly skilled professionals in the manufacturing sector who can design, program and operatetechnology. The average age of a manufacturing employee is 56, and between now and 2020 there will be an unprecedented shortage of skilled workers who will need to be replaced.
Our event and many others are not just informational. It's a way for manufacturer's to convey their passion for what they do and explain why and how young people can embrace the profession with post-secondary training that often last just a year or two and doesn't leave them with decades of college loan debt.
Our hope is to demonstrate in a very meaningful way the numerous opportunities available, how manufacturing contributes to the vitality of our community, and show modern manufacturing for what it is - a sleek, technology-driven industry that offers secure, good paying jobs.
