Gov. Tom Wolf announced Feb. 14 the approval of $147,616 in new funding for Susquehanna County Career and Technology Center’s (SCCTC) Welding Manufacturing Workforce Training program, which will provide training opportunities for both younger students and adult learners.
“This funding will ensure that there are opportunities for both younger students and the adult community to receive training that will help advance career paths in an industry that is facing a shortage of qualified employees — truly preparing a diverse and skilled workforce to thrive in Susquehanna County,” Wolf said.
The grant will enable SCCTC to offer a more complete welding manufacturing industry education for students and provide adults with 40-hour and 120-hour training opportunities during the school day and evenings.
Wolf’s Manufacturing PA initiative launched in October 2017 and has since funded 35 projects and invested more than $9 million through the Training-to-Career program. Training-to-Career grants support projects that focus on short-term work-readiness, job placement, or the advancement of manufacturing.
