FOMBELL, PA – VEKA Inc. will host a Manufacturing Day experience on Thursday, October 1, 2020 from 10:00 to 10:45 am. VEKA’s event is part of Manufacturing Day, the annual nationwide celebration of the manufacturing industry organized by the National Association of Manufacturers.
With respect to social distancing and safety precautions, this year’s event will be held virtually. Students, educators, parents, and community members can experience a step-by-step video tour through plant operations, following the extrusion product story from the moment the raw material arrives at VEKA’s North American headquarters until the high-qualit
y PVC profiles are ready to ship.
After the tour, current apprentices of VEKA’s Dual Apprenticeship program, will be available for a Q&A session. VEKA has the following apprenticeship programs registered with the U.S. Department of Labor: Plastic Extrusion Process Technician, Electro Mechanical Technician, Tool & Die Maker, CAD/CAM, Sales Engineer and Intern or Pre-Apprenticeship.
As manufacturers seek to fill 4.6 million high-skill, high-tech and high-paying jobs over the next decade, MFG Day empowers manufacturers to come together to address their collective challenges so they can help their communities and future generations thrive.
With manufacturing careers at the heart of some of the most impactful work being done in response to the pandemic we are excited to shine a spotlight on manufacturing careers.
