Modern Manufacturing Needs Skilled Workers with Automation Training

The need for skilled workers with automation training certifications is growing. According to the Manufacturing Institute, there are over 600,000 unfilled manufacturing positions in the US, but many applicants lack the skills and training to do the job. In the next ten years, this gap is expected to grow with well over two million manufacturing jobs predicted to go unfilled as the number of manufacturing jobs requiring higher skills continues to outpace the pool of trained candidates.


Today, FANUC has over 1,300 educational partnerships throughout the Americas. All FANUC education programs adhere to national ANSI/IACET standards, and meet the nationally recognized certifications approved by the Departments of Labor (DOL) and Education (DOE).
