Become a Member of SCMWDP Today!
If you are a Stark County manufacturer and finding it difficult to add to your team, we encourage you to join the efforts of the Partnership. We are looking to share best workforce development practices within the Stark County manufacturing community.
It’s not just about sharing best practices but also building collaborative solutions. These collaborative solutions — driven by the manufacturers working together — are what makes industry sector partnerships different from other workforce initiatives.
