AACC Manufacture Industry Immersion Academy - Ready for Use....

Welcome to the AACC Manufacturing Industry Immersion Academy Collaboration/Rollout Introduction!

The Anoka Area Chamber Manufacturing Cohort has been awarded a $150K DEED grant to develop and deploy an apprenticeship-style model, now known as the Industry Immersion Academy. This initiative aims to fill a critical gap in the career pathway for individuals graduating from training programs, creating a reliable workforce stream while enhancing retention among trained workers.

This event provides an opportunity to present our work on the Industry Immersion Academy, demonstrating how you can access this template and integrate it into your workforce development system.

Employer and industry collaboration has been essential in designing this program, and your participation is crucial for its success. We invite your feedback and interest in utilizing this template.

Join us as we embark on this important phase to place recent graduates in employment pathways within your companies. Take this next step with us!
