21 AMT B The Advanced Manufacturing Technician Program and the Advanced Manufacturing Career Pathways AMT B AME B AMB B July 28,

22 What s the Problem? Not enough skilled technicians 2011 Deloitte study estimates that the U.S. is short 600,000 skilled technicians. The gap is expected to increase. This stops factories! New technicians are not work ready Weak education, technical, and workplace efficiency skills. Low work values. This is a competitive disadvantage in the global market. Aging technical workforce Replacement need is arriving now. Current workforce age distribution is significantly unbalanced. This is a perfect storm. The U.S. is entering a technical workforce crisis. July 27,

23 What Is AMT? At its core, AMT is a Career Pathway The TOYOTA Multiskilled Technician Path July 27,

24 3 Core Components All of Equal Importance Technology Professional Behaviors Lean Manufacturing (Mfg. Core Exercises) Work Study Program 2 years 8 hrs/day 5 days/week 5 straight semesters Teaching Method Daily Expectation Reinforcement Feedback Correction Teaching Method Traditional Classroom & Lab Technical Core July 27,

25 Why AMT? AMT is an effort to secure a reliable and consistent pipeline of global quality technical talent to sustain and improve advanced manufacturing operations in the United States. AMT is one answer to help the United States sustain global leadership in manufacturing and to protect the contribution of manufacturing to the national quality of life. July 27,

34 Results To Date 100% job placement of 2-year graduates 100% AMT pass rate on Toyota s tough technical test Required to pass one of 4 test areas < 50% of experienced job applicants pass (not AMTs those applying for employment) Most that do pass do so in just one area. Over 50% of AMT pass all 4 areas. 100% pass 3 of 4 areas 100% completion of Lean Manufacturing Core Training estimated to be worth $10,000 on the market (free to AMT students). No other 2-year graduate programs teach this. No direct applicants have this complete training/knowledge. 100% of AMT s developed in Professional Behaviors Attendance/Initiative/Diligence/Interpersonal relations/teamwork/verbal & Written Communication Not structured part of any 2-year degree program July 27,

35 Brief (Very!) History Developed from Toyota s principles of: Safety / Quality / Productivity / Cost Continuous Improvement Respect for People 4th Phase of a 27-Year Continuous Improvement Process in Education (AMT phase started in 2010) Made in America (developed in the USA) Goal is to produce the best new technicians in the world. Toyota in Japan is benchmarking AMT as a company best practice July 27,
