Hadn't Thought of a Career In That Field

Here is a great opportunity for students in our area.  Please see the information below about careers in manufacturing.


Attention, Parents!

When:  Wednesday, March 20, 2013
Where:  Winding Brooke Conference Centre, Shepherd, MI
Time:  3:30 – 7:00 p.m.

Why You Should Attend…
The Career Expo will give you a chance to explore some of the vast career opportunities the world of manufacturing has to offer your son or daughter.  Information regarding scholarships sponsored by the Central Michigan Manufacturer’s Association will also be available at the venue.

Did You Know…
Career opportunities abound for all kinds of jobs in the advanced manufacturing industry with dozens of job titles from robotics operator to manufacturing engineer.  There is something for everyone from hands on (machine operator) to high-tech (semiconductor engineer) to creative (design engineer) to scientist (pharmaceutical researcher).  You can work at a manufacturing plant using your hands, in an office using computers to design parts, doing research in a lab or negotiating deals in a conference room.  You can work for a large firm or a small start-up or even explore entrepreneurial opportunities.


A recent report by Deloitte for the Manufacturing Institute, based on a survey of manufacturers, found that as many as 600,000 jobs are going unfilled.
