Wrapping up an invigorating conference with this quote from our morning session. So cool to learn about all the currently funded NSF grants for community colleges - there’s some amazing work being done. #EmbraceChange#ATEPI
Good luck to our precision machining technology students as they kick off the state SkillsUSA competitions today with the Automated Manufacturing Technology contest! @OTCedu@OTC_PMC#AdvancedManufacturing
How do you spend your Friday evening? You could be learning welding or industrial electricity skills like these ambitious students. I ♥️ seeing students in action!#AdvancedManufacturing@OTCedu
Robotics. Automation. Rapid Prototyping. Training in all of these high-demand fields is coming to the Ozarks with the opening of OTC’s Robert W. Plaster Center for Advanced Manufacturing. Preview the future.
Today the Drafting students visited Precision Machining to view the final results of their collaboration project. This fly wheel was designed to simply the machining process and weigh less than the original, saving time and money and making the air engine run faster. @OTCedu
Had a great visit to Multi-Craft Contractors this morning to see Noah, a machining major working as a designer. These 2 skills give him and edge - and exactly why the Plaster Center for Advanced Manufacturing is so badly needed for the future workforce. @OTC_PMC@OTCedu
Great visit to PolyFab plastics to see DDT student Brycen in action. Thank you @PolyfabInc for allowing students the opportunity to begin their careers!
Enjoyed hearing @OTC_PMC and other panelists discuss Workforce Challenges and Solutions at the Mo Association of Manufacturers conference. Great audience participation and idea sharing!
@sneakinabook @wise12220505 @MrDDT_OTC Oh my goodness - this made me laugh! In all reality, their efforts on all fronts were appreciated. Yours, too, @sneakinabook 😊 #ItTakesAVillage
