US manufacturers pledge to train 1.2M workers amid skilled labor shortage
Manufacturers are promising to upskill nearly 1.2 million workers, a major training commitment that comes as U.S. companies prepare to try to fill millions of open positions over the next decade amid a labor shortage.

The National Association of Manufacturers, which counts Caterpillar, Merck, Salesforce and Boeing as members, is poised to make the announcement during an event at the White House on Thursday.

“Manufacturers proudly make this pledge to the American worker: we will continue to invest in our workforce and provide 1,186,000 Americans with the opportunity to receive training and development that will enhance their skills and prepare them for the next step on their career journey,” said CEO Jay Timmons.

No need to go deep in hock for a useless degree. Learn a skill or improve the one you have. Your potential to earn a living wage goes up substantially. I am going to a local college for some specific welding classes this fall. Looking forward to it.
