AIV’s national partner and ally, the Manufacturing Institute, is hosting an upcoming webinar that should be of interest to many members:
The Manufacturing Institute’s Heroes MAKE America program will be presenting a virtual workshop focused on “How to MAKE Your Company Military Ready.”
American Manufacturing has a skills gap, and our military community can help fill it. However, we must improve our understanding of the barriers associated with the military-to-civilian transition to create successful recruiting and retention strategies to reduce or remove those barriers. In the end, businesses can improve services to their customers by employing contribution-motivated employees and enabling military community employees to self-actualize.
John Buckley, retired U.S. Army Colonel and Outreach Programs Lead with Koch Industries, will discuss the following key takeaways:
- Addressing the skills gap
- Top reasons why military veterans make great employees
- Understanding the barriers and challenges with the military-to-civilian transition
- How to create a military community recruiting and retention strategy to help overcome hiring barriers and challenges
