If you’re trying to figure out where AI belongs in production, planning, or customer work without replacing the people you already have, this is the room.

Looking to get your team thinking differently about waste and efficiency?

NEPIRC is hosting a Lean Principles training on Thursday, September 10 from 8 AM to 12 PM at our Hanover Township facility.

This hands-on session covers the 8 wastes of manufacturing, helps you spot value-added vs. non-value-added work, and includes a manufacturing simulation so everyone can see the impact in real time. Participants leave ready to do a waste walk and start identifying improvements back at their own facilities.

If your company is considering a broader Lean initiative, this is a solid foundation to get people on board and speaking the same language.
Spots are available now. Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lean-principles-tickets-1992850164488

Proud to help promote this great opportunity from our partners at Luzerne County Community College!

LCCC is hosting its 1st Annual Skilled Trades Fair on Friday, September 18 from 8 AM to 2 PM in celebration of National Tradesman Day. It’s designed for local high school freshmen enrolled in Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, with students on campus from 9 AM to 1 PM.

They’ll get guided campus tours, check out exhibitor displays, meet industry professionals, and hear a keynote from Marissa Bankert, President & CEO of Associated Builders & Contractors Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter.

Events like this matter. They’re helping build the pipeline of skilled talent our manufacturers across northeastern Pennsylvania need to grow and stay competitive. The trades are essential to keeping our region’s manufacturing strong.
Local manufacturers, if you’re looking to connect with future talent or just want to support the next generation, this is a solid place to show up. Spread the word to any CTE students or educators you know.

RSVP by September 7 using the QR code on the flyer or call 570-740-0482.
Anyone else excited to see more young people exploring careers in the trades? Tag a manufacturer or educator who should know about this.
