Heroes MAKE America

The Manufacturing Institute’s Heroes MAKE America veterans program is an accelerated training program to assist transitioning service members into rewarding careers in manufacturing.  More than 80 percent of manufacturers report they cannot find people to fill their skilled production jobs. Meanwhile thousands of servicemen and women return home each month, possessing not only an unmatched work ethic but also rigorous technical training and experience. The Heroes MAKE America program will provide veterans with the industry specific skills and certifications they need to succeed in the manufacturing workforce.

Launching in early 2018 at Fort Riley, in Kansas, the Heroes MAKE America pilot program will be a full-time, 10-week Career Skills Program in partnership with the U.S. Army Soldier For Life office.
