SME Funds TBM Program for Canada

Published: January 27, 2012

 DEARBORN, MI | A Canadian “Take Back Manufacturing” initiative, introduced last fall by the Society of Mfg. Engineers (SME) Toronto Chapter 26 hopes to become the catalyst for next-generation job creation. Endorsing this initiative, the SME Education Foundation has funded $15,000 to the SME Toronto chapter to work on developing processes and tools to promote advanced manufacturing engineering careers for Canadian students and assist the Canadian workforce to enhance their knowledge and skills.

In 2012 TBM will work with local governments on tax, trade, and education policies, followed by designing an aggressive plan to provide industry with a roadmap and tools to create a new and strong infrastructure for career development.
