Inspiring Tomorrow’s Manufacturer Today!

Open Your Doors!

Deloitte and the Manufacturing Institute (MI) recently completed their fifth U.S. Public Opinion of Manufacturing study.

It shows that there is overwhelming support for manufacturing in principle. And yet, only one out of three parents would encourage their children to pursue manufacturing careers.

Why the gap? Most people simply don’t have much first-hand knowledge of manufacturing.

The Deloitte and MI study shows that those familiar with manufacturing:

Are two times more likely to recommend manufacturing careers

Rank manufacturing in their top three career choices

In other words, one way to start to address the coming workforce shortage is to open your doors to more people — to show them what today’s manufacturing is really like.

So why not show the public how you manufacture? Join us on Manufacturing Day and help us change public perception!
