Manufacturing Day 2017: Cool Tech & Hot Careers

Clover Park Technical College, in collaboration with The Boeing Company, will host 300 students from a number of local high schools in Pierce, King and Thurston Counties. Students will all be on a mission to explore advanced manufacturing as a career.

The event will feature a luncheon program with guest speakers, a trade show-style “MFG Open Forum” that will feature local manufacturing companies, and a “Women in Manufacturing” speaker panel.  It will also feature program information tables representing a number of CPTC training programs related to manufacturing, including mechatronics, welding, manufacturing technologies, aviation maintenance, advanced composite manufacturing, and more. Students will have the opportunity to join guided tours of the shops and labs of mechatronics, welding and manufacturing technologies programs.
