Many industries that manufacture very different products — such as heavy machinery versus food processing — often rely on very similar equipment and techniques. The training that skilled workers require converges on a set of shared, core systems and experiences.
The Center will focus on delivering training in a variety of core skills essential to a wide range of different industries, rather than on applications specific to individual fields or companies. For example, the manufacturing training will encompass hydraulics, pneumatics, power transfer, conveyance, robotics, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and sensors.
