Solving the Skills Gap Puzzle

Delkor Systems' Patty Anderson and Hennepin Technical College's Jeff Thorstad join unPACKed with PMMI to discuss how their partnership helps increase training for current and future workers.

As one of the industries that remained in operation during the past four months, packaging and processing companies are seeing not only an increase in production, but also in the need for skilled workers. Unfortunately, the demand for trained labor comes during a time period when manufacturers were already having a hard time filling positions on their operations teams. The skilled labor shortage continues to leave hundreds of thousands of jobs to remain unfilled.

Join Delkor Systems' Patty Anderson and Hennepin Technical College's Jeff Thorstad, in this UnPACKed with PMMI podcast episode to hear guidance on solving the puzzle of bridging the skills gap. The pair speak on ways manufacturing and technical schools can work together.
