At DIAG USA, we are thrilled to sponsor the Fullerton College Machinist Apprenticeship Program. This collaboration highlights our dedication to nurturing the machining field while creating a thriving industry landscape. One of our key initiatives is hosting events like the Machining Apprenticeship Program BBQs. Here, we bring together employers and educators to foster connections in a relaxed and fun environment.

Building Connections
The Machining Apprenticeship Program BBQ isn't just a social event; it serves as a vital platform for meaningful conversations. During these gatherings, we engage with local employers to gather insights into industry needs and the challenges they face, such as the acute shortage of skilled employees. For instance, a recent survey indicated that 75% of manufacturing companies in the area reported difficulties in finding qualified machinists.

The Benefits of Apprenticeships
Our BBQ events provide an excellent opportunity to educate employers about the substantial benefits of fostering a talent pipeline through apprenticeships. Companies can reduce hiring costs and increase employee retention rates when they invest in apprenticeship programs.
During these gatherings, we emphasize the significance of mentorship and hands-on training. We help bridge the gap between aspiring machinists and employers committed to investing in the workforce.

A Path Forward for Machinists
At DIAG USA, we take pride in our support for the Fullerton College Machinist Apprenticeship Program. This commitment aims to foster a community that supports both current and future machinists. By addressing immediate workforce shortages, we are paving the way for a skilled and sustainable future in machining.
Join us in empowering the next generation of machinists. Whether you're an aspiring candidate or an established employer, there's a place for you in this growing and rewarding industry. Together, we can build a strong foundation for the future of machining.
