INVESTING IN
OUR FUTURE
At Rockwell Automation, we recognize that our future depends on the students of today. To help fill the workforce skills gap, we believe in Engineering our Future™ and Inspiring Young Minds™ for careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) through selected academic programs. In addition, in partnership with ManpowerGroup we’ve created a program called Academy of Advanced Manufacturing™ to train military veterans on control technology.
We know more than 2 million high-tech jobs in manufacturing will go unfilled over the next several years. To help solve for this critical gap, we’ve partnered with ManpowerGroup to launch the Academy of Advance Manufacturing (AAM), a program dedicated to training and placing military veterans into careers in advanced manufacturing with our cutomers nation-wide.
