On this edition of Manufacturing an American Century, I sat down with Daniel Wierman, founder of CNC Career Network, to discuss His work builds bridges between workforce developers, manufacturers, and local nonprofits to strengthen the talent pipeline in advanced manufacturing. Daniel brings a powerful mix of industry insight, leadership, and entrepreneurial spirit to the conversation, matched only by his humility and eagerness to learn, test, iterate and apply his knowledge to help young people and adults get the training support they need for lifelong, meaningful careers in manufacturing.
Daniel shares how his early experiences trying to recruit CNC operators exposed deeper issues of retention, training, and a lack of clear advancement paths. From launching registered apprenticeships with Goodwill Southern California to developing tools and training guides through CNC Career Network, Daniel has stayed focused on helping workers see a future for themselves in manufacturing. His insights on softening the transitions between nonprofits, educators, and employers are a must-hear for anyone working to rebuild America's manufacturing base at speed and scale.
Thanks to Daniel for joining us and for the work he’s doing to grow and sustain a stronger, more connected manufacturing workforce ecosystem!
