There is a severe ongoing skills gap in manufacturing, which is likely to limit productivity and growth. As a result, demand for experienced manufacturing professionals is extremely high.

This is being done with the aim of shrinking the industry’s public perception gap of the manufacturing industry and making manufacturing jobs a more desirable entry point.
