Industry 4.0 – Advanced Manufacturing box truck will provide mobile training opportunities throughout the District

Northwood Tech’s new mobile welding lab has arrived at the Rice Lake campus. The 53-foot mobile welding lab has eight individual welding booths, where students can practice hands-on skills and employers can have employees trained to upskill their abilities. The lab is part of the College’s expanding options for Industry 4.0 Advanced Manufacturing training. Since the lab is mobile, power will either be supplied by a generator or a shore power at the training site.

Northwood Technical College was recently announced as part of the official list of schools across the nation that have earned the 2023-2024 Military Friendly® Schools award level designation.

Northwood Tech President John Will represented the College at a White House event highlighting commitments made under the Biden administration’s Talent Pipeline Challenge, a call to action for employers, education and training providers and others to support equitable workforce development in critical infrastructure sectors like broadband.

NTCA and Northwood Tech also plan to create a common template for apprenticeship-like training, modeled after the Northwood Tech apprenticeship program.
