Indium Corporation was joined today by New York State Department of Labor Commissioner Roberta Reardon to officially sign and register their apprenticeship program.
Indium Corporation is partnering with The Manufacturers Association of Central New York (MACNY), Mohawk Valley Community College (MVCC), the National Institute for Innovation and Technology (NIIT), and the State University New York (SUNY) Polytechnic Institute to offer select employees an opportunity for on-the-job training while also working toward earning their professional certificates and college credits. The two apprenticeship opportunities that will initially be offered are Industrial Manufacturing Technician and Quality Technician. The first cohort of 12-15 existing employees will start a two-year program in 2022.
Indium Corporation employs more than 1,200 people worldwideover 800 of those jobs are in Central New York. The company continues to experience significant growth due to increased industry demand, resulting in record numbers of new employees and open positions, including more than 40 immediate openings for Production Operators at its 5836 Success Drive, Rome facility.
Indium Corporation President and Chief Operating Officer Ross Berntson said, “The New York State Apprenticeship Program embraces Indium Corporation’s commitment to developing our employees to not only flourish in their current positions but meet the growing needs of the advanced manufacturing industry, especially semiconductors. Through apprenticeships, Indium Corporation gains a credentialed program that leverages the strengths of our supervisors and subject matter experts, our local colleges, including MVCC and SUNY Poly, and organizations such as MACNY and NIIT.
MACNY President & CEO Randy Wolken said, “Registered Apprenticeships are vital to keeping our workforce strong. They provide incumbent workers with on-the-job training and related instruction to meet the future needs of their companies. Our registered apprenticeship approach has proven to be successful year after year, and we couldn’t do it all without the strong collaboration of our community partners. We are very proud of Indium Corporation and the many apprentices who will soon start the exciting journey of advancing their manufacturing skills and growing within their company.”
New York State Department of Labor Commissioner Roberta Reardon said, “Apprenticeships are a proven pathway to great careers that also provide a pipeline of skilled workers to employers across the economic spectrum. I applaud Indium Corporation and MACNY for joining forces to provide New Yorkers with the skills they need to succeed. Partnerships with this kind of synergy are an important part of New York State’s master plan to build back better.”
Today’s signing was part of several National Apprenticeship Week activities occurring throughout the state and nationwide.
