The SCMWDP supports Stark County manufacturers’ growth and expansion by offering seamless career pathways, delivering inclusive training and education, and sharing best practices within the manufacturing workforce development community which includes manufacturers, workforce development professionals, economic development organizations, educators, and community-based organizations. The SCMWDP has recognized two priorities at this time which include: Priority 1: Career Navigation- The SCMWDP will increase the manufacturing knowledge of career coaches/navigators/guidance counselors who are working with students and job seekers so that they can provide more accurate and compelling information to their clients. Provide comprehensive support for job seekers, students, and employees to mitigate barriers to success. Priority 2: Outreach- The SCMWDP will build awareness of manufacturing careers and the benefits of the partnership; we will recruit individuals into manufacturing careers and recruit and encourage businesses and organizations to join the SCMWDP membership through the intermediaries and the collaborative infrastructure that exists within Stark County.

National Tape Measure Day! Did you know that the modern tape measure was patented on this day in 1868? Here are some fun facts to celebrate this handy tool: 1️⃣ The longest tape measure in the world extends over 600 feet! 2️⃣ Early tape measures were made of cloth and were not as durable or accurate as they are now. 3️⃣ Look for those black diamonds on your tape measure – they’re stud markers for perfect construction spacing. Let’s shout out to the tool that helps us measure up daily! What's the most unusual thing you’ve used a tape measure for? Share in the comments below! #NationalTapeMeasureDay #ConstructionStartsHere
Here is a great example of robotic implementation in manufacturing!
With more than 200 machines and over 160,000 square feet of space, this tool and die maker continues to invest in automation and technology every year! Billy Hogge of Screwmatics of South Carolina, Inc is here to tell us how they went from having doubts to investing in robotic technology for precise, automated medical device manufacturing. These three cobots have allowed Screwmatics to produce several hundred more parts a day and run lights out shifts – all while making his team more productive so they make more money! Tune in with MTDCNC’s Tony Gunn to learn how Screwmatics increased their capabilities to produce extraordinary volumes while keeping overheads down. Screwmatics is one of the first ISO shops in South Carolina, and they’re investing in the best technology to give you a partnership you won’t forget.

Our guest for middle School Maker's Camp arrived! SCMWDP Board president, Shaun Eller, welcomed Senator Sherrod Brown to the Stark State camp site. Senator Brown spent an hour with the students. He talked about Ohio's manufacturing history, answered thoughtful questions from the students and then worked side by side with the kids to create and build marble roller coasters! The afternoon was capped off by awarding a special certificate from his office to every child. Thank you Senator Brown for your support. TomTod's team did a great job coordinating today's events and keeping the afternoon high energy!
