K-12

The Upper Mississippi Manufacturing Alliance recognizes that communication with students, parents, and educators of our region is important to share the wonderful career opportunities that are available in the manufacturing fields. For this reason, TUMMA’s largest and fastest-growing task force is our K-12 Taskforce working on exciting projects and events to bring exposure to manufacturing careers to students and parents!

2022 TUMMA K-12 Taskforce key areas

TUMMA members work with education leaders to develop communication and events to give first-hand exposure to the careers in manufacturing and the skills needed. Knowing the skills needed throughout a student’s K12 grades will give them a great advantage when entering higher education training and highly needed skilled trade positions.

Past events include facility tours, educator/TUMMA member gatherings at local high schools, Q&A with classrooms virtually, serving on high school panels, and working with education leaders on their development of new space in buildings that are being renovated and expanded.
