CUSTOMIZED INDUSTRY TRAINING
The state of North Carolina has a comprehensive commitment to ensuring the most knowledgeable workforce for its manufacturers statewide. Through established programs, companies can obtain assistance and funding support for certain worker training programs.
NCMEP partners leverage state contributions in order to provide the customized training so vital to the success and growth of industry. Manufacturers are able to describe their training and education needs so NCMEP can match directly with the appropriate set of project solutions.
INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN
Too often, important information gets lost in translation. Subject matter experts usually aren’t design and course development experts when it comes to creating complex lessons and course materials for different audiences. Instructional Design services can help enhance the design and delivery of courses, trainings and workshops.
NCMEP partners provide curriculum development and customized training program solutions to help address organizational learning goals.
