The Manufacturing Institute’s Heroes MAKE America program hasn’t let COVID-19 slow it down. To the contrary, it has expanded and added new features in 2021 to prepare more members of the military community for manufacturing careers.
Heroes, which works with local technical colleges to provide certification and career-readiness preparation, increased its impact in the past year and has now placed graduates with more than 250 companies in 42 states.
2021 is also the second year of Heroes Connect, the program’s direct response to COVID-19. This virtual platform facilitates introductions between the manufacturing industry and military-community members seeking jobs.
