FAME USA Partners with Amatrol
The Manufacturing Institute, the 501(c)3 workforce development and education affiliate of the 51勛圖厙, announced that Amatrol will be an official sponsor of the Federation for Advanced Manufacturing Education USA.
The background: FAME USA, an initiative founded by Toyota and now run by the MI,is the premier American model of manufacturing skills training, developing highly skilled, professional and sought-after talent to meet the unique needs and challenges of modern manufacturing.
- Amatrolis a globally recognized leader in technical education, providing critical certification, training equipment and continuing education materials to educational institutions and manufacturers.
The partnership: Amatrol is now the exclusive FAME training equipment and content sponsor for the advanced manufacturing, industrial maintenance and smart manufacturing space.
- Together, the two institutions will advance workforce readiness and upskilling as the sector embraces artificial intelligence and the Manufacturing 4.0 revolution.
- Amatrolwill continue its Diamond Sponsorship of the FAME National Conference while extending its support to the MIs Workforce Summit as a Gold Sponsor.
The MI says: The Manufacturing Institutes mission is building and strengthening the manufacturing workforce, and FAME USA is a key part of fulfilling that mission. Manufacturers will need to fill 3.8 million jobs by 2033, and half of those are expected to go unfilled because we dont have the people with the right skills, saidMI President and Executive Director Carolyn Lee.
- Through the partnership withAmatrol, were creating a clear pathway for FAME USA chapters to access top-tier training resourceswhether ensuring new chapters start with great equipment from day one, or giving existing chapters the opportunity to strengthen and expand their training programs as needs evolve.
Most importantly, this will allow us to work more cohesively with instructors throughout the FAME initiative and help them be more successful, saidAmatrolPresident Paul Perkins.
