Manufacturing 2.0
Rock River Valley manufacturing experts discuss the many facets of manufacturing: technology, education, training, events, people and any other aspects of this important segment of our economy. They’ll use this blog to get the word out and solicit feedback on local and global manufacturing. They hope to better engage our employers, employees and our future work force and increase their understanding of manufacturing.

Up and Running

It’s now five weeks into the school year and the ACE High School students have been to the IMTS Show, participated in hands-on activities at Rock Valley College, listened to guest speakers, taken a trip to the Burpee to view and test Rock River water samples, and have a trip planned to the electricians’ union.

In this time, the teachers and staff continue to work on the soft skills so many employers desire. We realize the best trained or educated worker adds no value to a company if he/she cannot show up on time or shows little respect for what goes in the work place. Our golden rule at the school is “Respect First.”

Many in the community have asked how they can help make ACE a success. As we look ahead, we will need places for students to experience a full work day their junior or senior year. If you desire to build a relationship with a student who can become a potential employee please contact the school at 815.966.3036.
