Faces of Manufacturing
Luncheon!
ND loves manufacturing!
The industry accounts for 7.3% of the state’s GDP. Over 27,000 North Dakotans are employed in the industry – that’s 6.8% of the workforce. Every manufacturing job looks different, just like each worker’s background looks different too. Technology and innovation have changed how workers are attracted, retained, and trained in this sector. Each job is important to each business and the success of our state. Impact Dakota and GNDC teamed up to spotlight this workforce.
FULL PRESS RELEASE (with list in entirety)
GNDC and Impact Dakota will celebrate these individuals with weekly spotlights culminating with a luncheon celebration and executive branch meet and greet, aligning with Manufacturing Day on September 27, 2024 – immediately before National Manufacturing Day.
Additionally in 2023, to showcase and introduce the industry to encourage tomorrow's workforce to consider the awesomeness of the opportunity in MFG we created two sheets that manufacturers and CTE centers can add to their toolbox.
- MFG Sheet: we asked Faces of MFG spotlights “What would you say to students who may not be considering manufacturing as a potential career option?” This sheet is a compilation of the answers.
- DIY Sheet: this sheet is specifically for manufacturers. It look likes the other sheet BUT there is a space to customize! Add their link and a QR code to a company page to promote their careers and opportunities.
Watch for the 2024 sheet!!
Thank you to our sponsors who made the 2023 sheet possible:
- CareerViewXR (Be More Colorful)
- ND Dept of Career and Technical Education
