Smart Manufacturing Meets Workforce Development
Workforce development in manufacturing is a problem that has reached an almost epidemic level. It is all hands-on deck from the government to manufacturers and educational organizations. There are more jobs available today and opening due to an older workforce than can currently be filled. Smart Manufacturing and technology can offer some solutions to help blunt many of the problems and maybe even turn things around. This presentation will address the top five ways that Smart Manufacturing can help with workforce development challenges: increasing job attractiveness, capturing tribal and skill knowledge, collaborative robot integration, training and assessments, and real-time job aids. Attendees will learn the most effective approaches to leverage software and technology in workforce development.
