Manufacturing SOS Alliance Manufacturing SOS Alliance Supporting Our Schools Manufacturing SOS Alliance Supporting Our Schools Our Mission Exposing and Educating tomorrows manufacturing workforce Giving Technical Financial and Political Support with Accountability SUMMARY Manufacturing SOS Alliance will create awareness as to the need for machinists and other metal manufacturing professionals by industry. A partnership between industry and Manufacturing SOS Alliance will create a budget allowing Manufacturing SOS to market the manufacturing trades and invest in local school districts to improve their technical education programs. The success of this partnership will breathe life into an otherwise stagnant or nonexisting high school technical education system and reestablish these programs as the primary exposure and marketing outlets for manufacturing occupations. The result will be increased interestenrollments in the high school programs thus creating increased interestenrollments in the technical college programs and apprenticeships.
