ERIE - The Manufacturer & Business Association (MBA), in partnership with the Butler County Manufacturing Consortium and the Butler County Chamber of Commerce, is on a mission to inspire, engage and attract the next generation of manufacturers, during the 2024 Butler MFG Day from 9 a.m. to noon Thursday, April 18, at the Butler County Community College – Founders Hall, 107 College Drive in Butler, Pennsylvania. All media are invited to attend.
The event will bring together Butler area manufacturers, educators and more than 300 students to showcase the high-paying, high-tech careers that are available in today’s diverse manufacturing industry.
Guests also can attend the Butler County Student Advisory Board's manufacturing panel in which 11th and 12th grade students from schools all over Butler County will share their thoughts, ideas, and feedback based onsite visits that were conducted through the school year.
“Butler MFG Day is a great opportunity for students, educators and employers to make the MFG connection,” says MBA Vice President Jezree Friend. “Through such efforts, we hope to change the perception of modern manufacturing careers, reaffirm the United States as a leader in manufacturing education and reinforce a higher level of technical job skills training.”
