Nonprofit Workshops for Warriors trains U.S. military veterans for manufacturing jobs.

In the most recent issue of MMS Extra, I wrote a short piece reviewing some of the training programs we’ve covered in the past—Workshops for Warriors and Skills Inc., to name two. Both of these are somewhat unconventional; Workshops for Warriors trains U.S. military veterans for manufacturing careers, while Skills Inc. helps place individuals with physical disabilities in jobs where they can succeed.
But we’re curious: What other notable training programs are out there? Maybe you were a student there, or your company has hired its graduates. Or maybe you just heard about it through the grapevine. Let us know by joining the discussion by sending me an email.
