A large portion of students from Fitchburg High School, located in Central Massachusetts, go into the workforce directly after graduating. To help these students, the school wanted to provide technical training to give them skills and exposure to careers. However, the breadth of offerings at a nearby vocational school was hindering Fitchburg High School from being able to provide Chapter 74 programs through its school. Then, Former Governor Baker’s administration announced new opportunities that Fitchburg High School could participate in: Innovation Pathways and the Skills Capital Grant Program. Led by Jeremy Roche, Principal of Fitchburg High School at the time, the school successfully became a designated Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Pathways school. Well-organized collaborative efforts went into the Innovation Pathways application, centered around a clear vision: to prepare kids, help local employers, and build the community.
When buying a CNC router from any supplier, including Techno CNC, make sure you read reviews, study the machinery, ask for samples, and ensure you purchase a machine that can achieve your application and desired result. Techno CNC has been in business since 1986, so we now have a pretty good grasp on what our customers are looking for when it comes to CNC machines. We have hired skilled engineers to bigger and better our old designs, which are now fully modernized with industrial grade components at an affordable price, as always.
After reading this article, we hope you understand why most of our customers come back to us stating “I wish I bought the machine sooner” or “I wish I took the plunge years ago”. Our machines pay for themselves fairly quickly, and will up your production in no time.
Around 40% of students at Fitchburg High School go directly into the workforce after graduating, and a high percentage of students are low-income or first-generation high school graduates. The administration and teachers at Fitchburg knew that students needed to get jobs after they finished high school. They also knew that manufacturing is a top job market in the region and that employers need hard-working, skilled employees.
If students were trained well enough to start working in the local manufacturing industry right after high school graduation, they would improve the city by eventually setting their roots, buying houses, and contributing to the local economy.
Educators, employers, and local government agencies knew they should work together to keep people in Fitchburg. They needed someone to unite the groups so that the public, private, and education sectors could collaborate around one vision that benefits everyone.
