As MFG Day 2018 approaches, St. Bernard Economic Development Foundation (SBEDF) is spotlighting the importance of fostering an interest in careers in manufacturing to remain a viable community, ready to capitalize on economic opportunity. Along with Domino Sugar and SSE, Jacques also mentioned the vital role that Nunez Community College is playing to ensure that St. Bernard Parish remains a competitive location for current and prospective companies specializing in manufacturing. Nunez Community College Chancellor, Dr. Tina Tinney believes that the college is an economic driver in the region providing workforce training that addresses the skilled labor shortage in advanced manufacturing. We are excited that Nunez will be recognized statewide during MFG Day 2018 and our new Aerospace Manufacturing Technology program, along with our other manufacturing programs that make our institution uniquely positioned to deliver first-rate educational programs to meet the needs of this growing sector.”

You’ll gain a clear understanding of the structural steel supply chain, the fabrication process, and how the expertise of a steel fabricator can contribute to a successful project. In 2017 events will include project site tours, tours of structural steel mills, service centers and fabrication shops as well as national webinars and special education opportunities for structural engineers and architects. It is a good chance to interact with the design and construction players in a non-project, relaxed atmosphere while learning about their part of the project. “SteelDay is a fantastic opportunity for those in the design/construction industry to see first hand the amount of effort that goes into the products so easily specified and drawn in construction documents.
