Training to Increase as Boomers Retire
At the same time that the boomer generation is retiring, the pool of skilled workers, especially in manufacturing, is shrinking. As a result, the need for training is expected to increase.
Companies in Cleveland already are investing in more training and other manufacturers in the Midwest are making similar plans. Don Johnson, vice president of Advanced Technology Services in Peoria, Ill., says training will be critical to ensure the next generation of full-time employees is prepared to replace those who are exiting the workplace.
Rick Capretta of ProTech Staffing Solutions in Mayfield Heights says that "there are not a lot of good people who aren't working...so the talent pool is getting smaller, especially in this region."
