Utah’s manufacturing industry is continuously growing. And it’s growing fast. So much so, that major employers like Boeing, Merit Medical and more are having trouble keeping up with hiring. Basically, there’s a shortage of qualified candidates to meet demand. By partnering with technical and community colleges in the area to create very specific, streamlined training programs designed to put qualified applicants (like you) to work as quickly as possible, we’re building Utah’s manufacturing workforce and launching hundreds of new careers in the process.
How Launch My Career Works

Why choose manufacturing?
Contrary to popular belief, manufacturing isn’t a thing of the past. Not anymore, at least. In fact, the industry has come a long way in the past few years. The rise of technology paired with dedicated efforts from companies around the industry have turned many workshops into clean, safe and, dare we say, cool, places to work these days. And in Utah, the industry is really thriving — meaning more career opportunities, higher pay and better benefits are always on the horizon. So, if you like the sound of that, and love the idea of telling your friends you do amazing stuff like build airplanes for a living, then manufacturing might be the perfect fit for you.
