Manufacturing and engineering are full of talented, passionate people. Just listen to literally any of these episodes for proof of that. But what is it that keeps people in this space motivated and fulfilled? Ask 10 different people, and you'd likely get 10 very different answers. For this episode, we posed the question to three guests – Steve Ilmrud, VP of Operations for North America at Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Jeff Van Horn, Owner & Sr. Project Manager at Industrial Technology Solutions Inc., and Randy Smith, a CNC Programmer & Machinist in the Aerospace and Defense Industries.We explore the common threads throughout all their careers, paying particular attention to the art of metrology – how we measure things in manufacturing. Without accurate measurement, products wouldn't make it out the door and manufacturers would be left with a bunch of scrap and route back to square one. On-the-job training is another big focus of our talk, and we hear why we should prioritize proactive rather than just reactive training, plus how modern tools are shaping both training and production efficiency.In this episode, find out:What is metrology? Jeff, Steve, and Randy give their own definitions in relation to how they've used it in their careers Why measuring things throughout a fabrication process is critical to reducing waste Real examples of how good metrology practice has helped manufacturers build the best products (and what happens when it's not used)Why the right data and statistics are critical for improving reliability Leveraging metrology during on-the-job training to be more proactive than reactive to challenges How modern tools and technology can help manufacturers be more proactive and productive Working smart vs working hard and using the right technology The mindset shift that manufacturers need to adopt, both in training and production How focusing on the three Ps (people, parts, and process) has helped Steve stay focused and solve challenges The common themes that keep Jeff, Steve, and Randy motivated in their careersEnjoying the show? Please leave us a review here. Even one sentence helps. It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:"You cannot wait to inspect all your parts, especially in the fabrication shops, when they're done. If you don't catch it during the process, it's going to end up in rework." – Jeff Van Horn"Regardless of the parts you're making or what you're doing, real-time inspection and feedback are really critical and it can save you a lot of time and time and aggravation." – Randy Smith"It comes down to people, parts, and process – the three Ps. Almost any challenge I've had in my career can be addressed through the three Ps." – Steve IlmrudLinks & mentions:Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, empowering makers to innovate and create without limit with solutions support optimization throughout the product lifecycle, specializing in metrology, production, and design & engineeringLeica Absolute Tracker ATS600, the first ever direct scanning laser tracker that can digitally pinpoint and inspect large parts and surfaces that are simply out of range of traditional handheld 3D laser scanners, touch probes,

Paying for college doesn't have to be a financial nightmare!  In this episode we talk about some of the ways to cover the cost without drowning in student loans. Contact Chris: https://heavymetal.money ⁠https://www.facebook.com/MoneyHeavyMetal⁠ https://x.com/MoneyHeavyMetal ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chrisluger⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@heavymetalmoney⁠ email: chris at heavymetal.money Contact Dan: email: dan at corepln.com https://www.corepln.com/dan-hine Resources and Links: A Path to Free College for Those Who Serve With The Post-9/11 GI Bill https://heavymetal.money/gibill/ Free Tuition in Minnesota: Unveiling the North Star Promise https://heavymetal.money/northstarpromise/ Pay Less For Two-Year Degrees That Can Make You Bank https://heavymetal.money/twoyeardegree/ High-Paying Trade Jobs and Careers That Don't Require a College Degree https://heavymetal.money/tradejobs/ Econome Session - Chris Corinthian: How to Pay for College Without Student Loans https://youtu.be/4-SR8PN5Jiw?si=6AUGtQ2AOlyZHv52 Scholly has made $30 million in revenues since starting up and supported over 5 million users. The deal with Sallie Mae also has allowed the company to distribute the app for free; it used to cost $2.99 a month. https://www.sallie.com/scholarships/scholly Scholarships Scholarships are the best way to pay for college because they don't need to be repaid. Many scholarships are merit-based (for academics, sports, arts, etc.), but others are awarded for unique skills, interests, or even random qualifications. Where to find them: Fastweb.com, Scholarships.com, and the College Board's Scholarship Search. Local businesses, nonprofits, and religious organizations often offer scholarships. Many schools automatically consider students for merit scholarships upon application. Post 9/11 GI Bill  The Post-9/11 GI Bill offers a substantial list of benefits, making it a wicked-awesome opportunity to obtain low-cost, or perhaps FREE college education! Here's a breakdown of what it covers: Tuition and Fees (Full Coverage at Public Colleges and Universities): If you attend a public college or university, the Post-9/11 GI Bill provides 100% coverage for tuition and mandatory fees. If you attend a private or foreign school, the GI Bill can cover up to $27,120 per year (as of 2024). If your chosen school exceeds this amount, you may still receive additional funding through the Yellow Ribbon Program, which will be explained in more detail below. Housing Allowance (BAH – Basic Allowance for Housing): While enrolled in school, you receive a monthly housing allowance based on the local cost of living. If you're taking online-only courses, you'll still receive some money for housing, but it's approximately half of the full-time student rate. Money for Books and Supplies: You're allocated up to $1,000 per year to cover textbooks and school supplies. This money is directly deposited into your account, allowing you to purchase the necessary materials for your classes. Job Training and Certification Programs: The GI Bill doesn't limit its benefits to traditional colleges. It can also cover vocational schools, technical training, apprenticeships, and even flight school. visit the VA's website (www.va.gov/education/) for the most up-to-date information. Grants Like scholarships, grants are free money that does not need to be repaid. Most grants are based on financial need. Key Grant Programs: Pell Grant – Up to $7,395 per year (2024-25) for low-income students. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) – Additional aid for low-income students. State Grants – Many states offer their own need-based grants. Institutional Grants – Colleges may provide their own grants based on financial need or special circumstances. How to apply: Fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as early as possible. Work-Study The Federal Work-Study Program provides part-time jobs for students to help pay for tuition and living expenses. Jobs are often on-campus and flexible with class schedules. Unlike a regular job, work-study earnings don't count against your FAFSA financial aid eligibility. How to apply: Check the FAFSA box that asks about work-study interest. Employer Tuition Assistance (Let Your Boss Pay) Many companies offer tuition reimbursement for employees pursuing higher education. Programs vary but can cover $5,250 per year (tax-free) or more. Some companies that offer tuition assistance: Amazon's Career Choice Program Starbucks College Achievement Plan UPS Earn & Learn Program Walmart Live Better U How to apply: Ask your employer's HR department about tuition benefits. 529 College Savings Plans (Tax-Advantaged Savings) A 529 Plan is a tax-advantaged investment account for education expenses. Money grows tax-free if used for qualified education expenses. Some states offer tax deductions or credits for contributions. How to start: Open an account through your state's 529 plan website or a financial institution.

Earlier this week, a nonprofit watchdog filed a complaint asking Louisiana's Attorney General to investigate whether a crisis pregnancy center in New Iberia broke state law. The pregnancy center allegedly posted clients' personal information online, despite claiming that it follows federal health privacy laws.WWNO/WRKF broke the story, and reporter Rosemary Westwood joins us for more.About half of jobs in New Orleans are considered “mid-skill.” That means you need a high school degree, but probably not a bachelor's. It's good news for teenagers who don't want to go to college, or who are ready to just start working. Education reporter Aubri Juhasz visits a career center that's preparing kids for all kinds of jobs that don't require college education. The Upstairs Lounge fire in New Orleans in 1973 remains one of the country's deadliest attacks on the LGBTQ community. In the decades since, a bronze plaque in the French Quarter has listed the 32 victims who died when an arsonist set fire to the neighborhood gay bar.But earlier this year, that plaque was stolen. A New Orleans man has been caught and arrested. But the original marker remains missing.Now a group of local activists is working to get a new memorial installed at the Upstairs Lounge site. WWNO and WRKF's Matt Bloom spoke with Frank Perez, one of their leaders. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber.

When I first got to Tokyo in 1979, there was a very well established corporate educational system in Japan.  Unlike Universities in Australia where you studied a subject and expected to work in a closely related field, Japan was concentrating on producing generalists.  It didn't matter what you had studied at University, because the company would educate you on what you needed to know. I also discovered that the tertiary educational system was broken, so companies couldn't rely on Universities to educate the young. I was so surprised to realise that except for those entering professions like law, medicine, architecture, etc., and needing to pass national exams, most students were living their best life (at their parents' expense). Think a four-year sojourn at Club Med and you get the flavour of spending most of your time engaging in club activities and working part-time jobs, rather than studying. The principal education tool for companies wasn't formal training.  There were a few weeks at the start as new grads were onboarded, where you learnt about the firm, systems and the basic etiquette of business. After that, your sempai or seniors and your boss would teach you the ropes. As everyone joined the firm for life, there was a logic in the boss spending their valuable time grooming the next generation. In 1978, the first Japanese language word processor was developed, which allowed everyone to type in Japanese more easily.  There were still secretarial pools in those days, so the boss didn't have to get their hands dirty playing around with this tech. In November 1995 Windows 95 was launched in Japan, which made it easy for anyone to access the internet.  With the take up of email, the boss was now required to write their own emails and gradually the secretarial pool went the way of the Dodo. The upshot is that this change meant the boss and the sempai were now much busier than before, doing their own emails and their own typing. The amount of time available to train the next generation on the job went down and has been down ever since. There was no supplementation with formal training, because the OJT system was so accepted as all that was needed.  These changes are glacial, so they didn't attract much attention on the way through, but things did change. Where are we today?  During Covid, we found a not very amusing contradiction with Japanese corporate training.  Those domestic Japanese companies who had already come to the realisation that corporate training was required just stopped in their tracks.  They cancelled set classes because of Covid and were worried about the safety aspects of people gathering together.  Dale Carnegie in the US had started online training delivery in 2010, so fortunately, we had specialized manuals for online delivery and certification systems in place for trainers and producers when Covid hit.  We could teach them global best practice techniques accumulated over the previous decade. We ran our first online class in March 2020, free for our clients and covering Stress Management.  We quickly found that WebEx at that time had a 100 person limit and we crashed the system.  We regrouped and completed the training session. We proved to ourselves that using the Dale Carnegie approach of highly interactive training also in the online training environment was a viable option. Unfortunately, many domestic Japanese companies didn't think so and refused the online option, believing that it couldn't provide sufficient delivery quality compared to face-to-face. That actually wasn't true, but nobody in Japan ever gets fired for foregoing opportunities to embrace change and do something new. They didn't want to return to the classroom, and they didn't want to do it online, so with this Catch 22, they did nothing. Some of these companies are slowly coming back to face-to-face training.  What Covid revealed though, was that the Middle Manager level of capability wasn't well developed, having relied only on OJT and they needed to fix this problem.  We have been doing a lot of leadership training as a result.  The gaps we notice are that the managers are totally undereducated on what is required to be a leader. They have spent time on the job so they can run the machine.  They can see that it runs on time, to cost and at the required quality, but these managerial attributes do not make them a leader. The difference between a manager and a leader is that the leader does all of those things a manager does, plus sets the direction for the team, builds the culture and develops the people. The upshot is that those companies who invest in their people and give their Middle Managers leadership training will do better in the zero sum game for retaining staff. People leave bosses, not companies. With the declining population and permanent shortage of people, replacing staff can be extremely difficult and potentially fatal to companies.  I believe the continued reliance on the broken OJT system for training leaders is a nonsense and a suicidal choice.  Get your people trained if you want to survive this war for talent. Young people are much more mobile and one in three are departing their companies after three or four years and joining the competitors. This is very expensive after they have been trained and they are hard to replace. With properly educated Middle Managers, the retention rates will be much higher and will yield a competitive advantage against rivals who have only been trained through OJT. This is no joke and the consequences of getting the equation wrong are deadly serious. OJT is dead. Companies should stop relying on it and should instead get professional leadership training for their Middle Managers before it is too late.    

Shoot us a Text.We're almost at the end of another week, and today we're covering how it seems that the Trump team is getting ready to eliminate the EV tax credit. Plus, GM is working with EV owners in Texas to offer free nighttime EV charging, and how on-the-job training is becoming harder to find.Show Notes with links:The Trump transition team is set to eliminate the $7,500 EV tax credit in an upcoming tax reform, a shift that could hinder the U.S.'s EV progress. Despite Tesla's reliance on this subsidy, representatives of the company appear supportive of the repeal.Killing the credit aligns with Trump's campaign pledge to end Biden's "EV mandate."Tesla, though impacted, may benefit as the change would likely harm its competitors more, especially legacy automakers like GM.Energy transition discussions are led by oil magnate Harold Hamm and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum.Eliminating the subsidy could free up funds to extend Trump's major tax cuts.The Alliance for Automotive Innovation stressed the importance of credits, calling them "critical to cementing the U.S. as a global leader."General Motors is collaborating with Reliant Energy to offer free nighttime charging for Chevy EV owners in Texas. The initiative, aimed at making EV ownership more affordable, leverages renewable energy credits to support sustainable charging.Chevy owners enrolled in Reliant's EV plan get free charging from 11 PM to 6 AM, offset through monthly bill credits.Users must specify an EV on GM Energy's Smart Charging Portal to qualify.This promotion is part of a broader trend as automakers like Ford offer perks to attract hesitant EV buyers.GM and Reliant claim charging is renewable, thanks to Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), though these credits have been criticized for masking fossil fuel use.In many companies, new hires and even seasoned workers are left struggling due to inadequate training. With limited mentorship and lack of clear guidance, employees are increasingly expected to "figure it out" alone.High job turnover, hybrid work, and cost-cutting have weakened structured training.Only 50% of Gen Z workers report having mentors, despite 83% valuing it.Less than half of employees feel they fully understand their job expectations, per Gallup.Tech-based training has limitations, while mentorship apps often see low engagement.Kenneth Matos of HiBob warns that cutting training leaves junior employees overwhelmed and managers burnt out.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

On today's episode of Hear Me Out: get back to work. When your job becomes obsolete, is it the government's job to teach you to do something else?  That's the theory behind federal workforce training programs – which have existed, in various forms, for a long time. The problem is that studies are starting to show that these programs don't provide much of an edge to workers… and that the jobs they place for might not be good jobs. Kevin Carey of New America joins us to argue for a retooling of federal work training.
