As part of their dedicated efforts to provide the manufacturing workforce needed for Connecticut\u2019s economic future, Goodwin College is bringing advanced manufacturing training on the road!<\/p>\n

Having already travelled to dozens of middle and high schools around the state, Goodwin\u2019s Advanced Manufacturing Mobile Training Lab brings multiple levels of manufacturing education to eager students throughout the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cYoung people are often surprised when it is explained to them that almost everything around them is manufactured in some way,\u201d Dr. Al Pucino, Goodwin\u2019s Director of Incumbent Worker Training said.Now Goodwin is working to show the next generation of Connecticut\u2019s makers that manufacturing is no longer dark, dirty, and dangerous by bringing manufacturing on the road.<\/p>\n

Students are able to get hands on with real manufacturing equipment, seeing exactly how they can take an idea from concept to design; from design to computer program; and from the program they write directly into the real world.<\/p>\n

The 44-foot trailer has its own generator, smartboard, Wi-Fi, and room enough to hold Goodwin\u2019s advanced manufacturing equipment that students would see in manufacturing floors throughout the state. Students can watch presentations on the lab\u2019s external 50-inch television, or work on machines inside all at their schools.<\/p>\n

\u201cVery often, we instruct inside our mobile lab on location at a manufacturing company\u2019s facility,\u201d Pucino said. \u00a0\u201cThough when requested, we\u2019ll go into the company building to provide training.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where Goodwin\u2019s\u00a0manufacturing training programs<\/a>\u00a0come in. Along with reaching out to middle and high school students, the lab is used as part of Goodwin\u2019s extensive incumbent worker training program. With an impressive roster that includes many one-day, four-hour workshops, employees complete the workshops with usable manufacturing skills, ready to apply them in their workplace. Goodwin can accommodate up to 12 employees in each workshop session.<\/p>\n

From training the current workforce to exciting the makers of the future, Goodwin College\u2019s Advanced Manufacturing Mobile Training Lab brings the world of manufacturing directly to those who benefit most.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
