Gold Collar Careers

Welcome to the Gold Collar Careers website! I am thrilled that you have taken time to explore this portal which thrives to demystify manufacturing and keep manufacturing strong in America by dispelling negative perceptions of manufacturing and promoting advanced manufacturing careers.

The site was developed by our grassroots organization, Manufacturing Works and has received substantial updates and maintenance through funding by the Advanced Manufacturing Network-Northwest.

As a student or career seeking individual, you deserve to be informed of the opportunities in advanced manufacturing that are high tech, high pay and are in high demand in your own backyard!

We invite you to tour our site to learn more about the viable careers awaiting you in advanced manufacturing, how you can prepare, where you can get the education required and what you can expect to do within various manufacturing fields.

Technological advances demand more highly skilled employees, and the looming retirement bubble makes the skills gap even more pronounced. As an industry and a community member, it is important that we become actively involved in the challenge to bolster the image of manufacturing and tackle the skilled labor shortage head on. It is critical to the health of our economy.
