January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
America Makes has launched a new education and workforce development (EWD) digital tool, AMJobs.org (AMJobs), in collaboration with CAST, Inc., a nonprofit education research and development organization focused on designing learning experiences. The digital platform was funded by the Ohio Department of Development.
The free tool, AMJobs, opens up access to a great range of additive manufacturing (AM) careers and helps foster talent development.
America Makes reports that its EWD training programs are focused on assisting individuals in exploring careers, developing industry-relevant skills, and accomplishing educational and career milestones.
"AMJobs opens the door for everyone to experience the world of AM, demystifying the industry and bringing its reality closer to those who may perceive it as unconventional. Considered as our 'front door,' it invites individuals to glimpse inside and gain insight into the dynamic AM industry,” says Emily Young, EWD project engineer at America Makes.
The initiative is comprised of input from pertinent stakeholders, educators, and K-12 students. These insights helped inform the platform's design. The contributors included:
America Makes designed the platform to be accessible for all learners through universal design for learning (UDL) approaches. UDL, developed by CAST is a research-driven framework for designing inclusive learning experiences.
