EMPLOYERS

The current skills gap confronts manufacturers with the obstacle of an under qualified workforce. 

Over 375,000 jobs will be unfulfilled, costing companies annual earnings due to downtime, overtime, and increased cycle times. 

 

Apprenticeship programs can help solve this problem through in-house workforce development. 

Manufacturers gain highly competent employees, reduce turnover costs, and increase employee retention. Consequently, companies improve productivity, product quality and services, allowing a higher return on investment.
