From Military to Manufacturing

A number of corporations, including GE, Alcoa, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin have joined in a new coalition to train veterans for jobs in advanced manufacturing technologies. The coalition will focus on assisting veterans and employers to translate military skills to advanced manufacturing jobs and on empowering employers to recruit and mentor veterans. The initial program is designed to help 15,000 veterans gain the necessary skills for careers in the advanced manufacturing sector, but the coalition is seeking additional partners to meet its goal of reaching 100,000 veterans by 2015.
