Northern Nevada Consortium for Manufacturing and Mining

The Northern Nevada Consortium for Manufacturing and Mining addresses both the needs of TAA-eligible workers and other adults while also addressing the needs for a highly skilled workforce for the state's Manufacturing and Mining sectors. The colleges, in partnership with employers and the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, have determined the highest priority areas of training necessary for a highly qualified workforce for which jobs are available in Northern Nevada. These areas are welding, industrial millwright, machine tooling/computer numerical control, manufacturing production/applied industrial technology and CISCO certified networking. All are in alignment with moving the manufacturing and mining companies forward and opening opportunities for new investment in Nevada.
