Education::MAGNET Education Advisory Committee

MAGNET relies on guidance from its advisory committee. The committee includes educators, manufacturers and representatives from the public workforce system and economic development organizations.

The Education Council seeks to:

• Align the resources of the region's academic and training institutions with the current and emerging needs of manufacturers

• Redefine the image of manufacturing for young people, parents, educators and policy makers

• Grow the pool of individuals pursuing advanced manufacturing careers in Northeast Ohio
