Building the Manufacturing Workforce
Protect and grow the manufacturing workforce for tomorrow
Modern manufacturing offers high-paying, rewarding careers—and these jobs are available whether you have a high school diploma or an advanced degree, whether you’re beginning your career or changing careers. Manufacturers are looking for dedicated, skilled individuals who want to do work that makes a difference. And with hundreds of thousands of jobs open right now—and millions more to fill over the next decade, manufacturers are hiring. Manufacturers are working with Congress, as well as local leaders and educational institutions, to get more people connected with a promising manufacturing career.
