The FireWorks Conference is presented by the MEP National Network and brings together education and workforce development (EWD) professionals to strengthen and empower U.S. manufacturing. The conference will feature sessions selected by EWD professionals for EWD professionals to support both the MEP National Network and Manufacturing USA network.
At FireWorks, EWD professionals will focus on advancing American manufacturing through collaborations, supporting workforce development programs, and upskilling existing workers to adapt to the rapid change of technology in manufacturing. FireWorks’ goals are to:
•Share best practices in workforce development directly from the practitioners
•Explore how the networks are helping fill open manufacturing jobs and retain workers
