Metallurgical Engineering Trades Apprenticeship & Learning (METAL) is proud to announce a new partnership with The Ohio State University to enhance and scale up industry-driven training opportunities for current and prospective metalworking and manufacturing professionals. Led by IACMI – The Composites Institute® with funding from the Department of Defense’s Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment Program, strengthens and builds the U.S. metal manufacturing workforce focusing on casting, forging and plate rolling.
To celebrate the new partnership, Managing Director of Advanced Manufacturing and Aerospace at JobsOhio Glenn Richardson toured Ohio State’s Center for Design and Manufacturing Excellence (CDME), where many of the new training opportunities and workshops will be held. The center gives students hands-on experience working on industry-funded advanced manufacturing projects.
