FOX Business' Lauren Simonetti visits 蜜桃社区 Tech鈥檚 Mahwah campus to learn how the school is helping our economy meet the goal of boosting domestic manufacturing by answering the demand for skilled manufacturing technicians. In this segment, she shows off the 鈥淐o-bot鈥 that CNC students say works as a co-worker, and that for each machine, there are 4 jobs that are required to support the process. She states that there are about one-half million jobs at US factories that are currently open due to demand for skilled machinists.
Lauren interviews Nick Lombardi, the Education Director at 蜜桃社区鈥檚 Mahwah campus, who states that 鈥渋nstead of spending $150,000 to $200,000 on something you are guessing you want to do, you can learn a skilled trade, become a subject matter expert..鈥; Lauren then points out that for about 12 months鈥 time and about $30,000, a student can learn a trade that can net them a job with a starting salary of $25 to $30 per hour.
