Acerca del Comité
The announcement of Micron’s $100 billion investment and its plan to create nearly 50,000 jobs across New York marks a pivotal moment for our region. This investment is not just about job creation; it’s a transformative opportunity that necessitates
immediate action to ensure our workforce is prepared for the influx of high-paying and diverse roles.
The emphasis on workforce exposure, development, and job opportunities is critical now more than ever to bridge the current skills gap, enhance our educational
systems, and align workforce development efforts with the fast-approaching economic expansion. This priority area is designed to equip our residents, especially high
school students and those entering the workforce, with the necessary skills, training, and exposure to thrive in a rapidly evolving job market.
By aligning our workforce development strategies with the needs of the semiconductor industry and the broader economic landscape, we ensure that the region not only benefits from but also contributes significantly to the state’s growing semiconductor sector.
This moment represents a unique opportunity to strengthen our economic foundation, diversify employment opportunities, and secure a prosperous future for all Central New Yorkers. Importantly, New York State is already making significant strides through its recent commitment to create the flagship One Network for Regional Advanced Manufacturing Partnerships (ONRAMP)
in the City of Syracuse and the initial planning work provided by the Future-Ready Workforce Innovation Consortium.
Central New York residents have prioritized bridging the gap between education and the workforce by fostering a seamless transition for high school students and beyond. This priority area aims to provide diverse workforce exposure, enhance workforce development programs, and
create ample job opportunities, ensuring a robust pipeline of skilled professionals ready to meet the region’s evolving
economic demands.
