Connecticut Advanced Manufacturing Initiative

MCC is leading a statewide consortium of 13 community colleges to expand its innovative manufacturing training program to more colleges in the state. The Connecticut Advanced Manufacturing Center places 88% of its graduates into high-wage jobs in the industry. The new funding will help the consortium achieve four evidence-based strategies: 1) expand the capacity of college facilities to support more students and new programs; 2) scale up industry-driven training programs resulting in industry-recognized credentials; 3) increase retention and accelerate completion through student supports and services; and 4) strengthen and expand the AMC sector based approach to employment and training, such as expand access to Registered Apprenticeships.
