According to a recent study by the Career Advisory Board1, there is a general lack of technical proficiency among those entering the workforce. A 2015 study sponsored by The Manufacturing Institute and Deloitte2 found the skills gap in manufacturing could lead to an estimated 2 million unfilled jobs in the United States over the next decade, prompted in part by a lack of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) skills among its workforce.
