17 ISA Member Companies To Participate in Sign Manufacturing Day
Alexandria VA (PRWEB) September 04, 2014 -- The second annual Sign Manufacturing Day, sponsored by the International Sign Association in conjunction with the National Association of Manufacturers, will showcase the diverse career options in the sign and visual communications industry. Currently, 17 ISA member companies in 21 locations are expected to take part in the Oct. 3 event.
Participants in Sign Manufacturing Day invite area high school, technical and community college students to their facilities to show how the businesses operate and how they contribute to their communities. Sign companies and suppliers receive the full support of ISA and NAM, which provide a tool kit to help companies plan and execute the program.
“Inviting these students inside the facilities to hear about the many types of jobs available in the sign and visual communications industry will go a long way to solving workforce development challenges in the coming years,” said Lori Anderson, ISA president and CEO. “Companies that participated in 2013 said many students had questions about internships. I don’t think it will be long before we hear of the first hires as a result of this program.”
