Lincoln and Logan County Development Partnership Seeks to match Logan County manufacturers with Certified Production Technicians

[May 12, 2014]  LINCOLN - The Lincoln/Logan County Development Partnership (LLCDP) seeks to provide Logan County manufacturers with potential new employees, each of whom has just completed his/her participation in the Accelerated Training for Illinois Manufacturing (ATIM) program. The ATIM program is administered by the Illinois workNet Center headquartered in Springfield.

The ATIM program prepares workers for high-demand jobs in manufacturing. Individuals selected to participate benefit from personal career development and accelerated training plans to meet each participant’s needs. A newly graduated group of Certified Production Technicians (CPT) has just successfully completed a Certified Production Technician course of study at Lincoln Land Community College as part of their participation in the ATIM program.

The LLCDP has partnered with Illinois workNet to help Logan County manufacturer’s address a common problem: the need for a reliable and qualified workforce. To help meet this need, the LLCDP has resumes of this set of qualified CPT graduates available to share with any Logan County manufacturer interested.

Please contact Bill Thomas, Interim Executive Director of the LLCDP with questions or requests for resumes, at either: 217-732-8739 or 217-648-5077. The LLCDP is here to help Logan County-based manufacturers with their workforce development needs, so interested firms are encouraged to contact the LLCDP office.
