The Navy is completely transforming its nuclear-powered submarine fleet and needs an influx of skilled trades workers to build and maintain its critical undersea advantage.

This requires the addition of 100,000+ skilled workers with the training and commitment to ensure success. Project MFG partners with many groups dedicated to increasing our naval advantage. 

Project MFG’s Maritime Welding competitions focus on industry needs and invites high-school students to participate in welding competitions to prove their skills, help industries identify skilled workers, and expose students to the many job opportunities available to them in the maritime industry.

Many events end with the competition winners not only winning prizes and receiving top honors, but walking away with job offers from local industry representatives!
