Linde recently announced that it has expanded its Skills Pipeline Workforce Development Program in collaboration with Ivy Tech Community College (Ivy Tech) in Indiana to help address the growing need for skilled workers in today’s global economy.
This newest Skills Pipeline program will train students for careers in production and maintenance technology.
Funded through a $200,000 contribution from Linde’s Global Giving Program, this addition brings the company’s investment in all Skills Pipeline programs to nearly $2 million since 2014.
The new program is the first in the Skills Pipeline family to offer formal training to dual-credit students finishing high school in Northwest Indiana and aligns with the state’s Next Level Jobs workforce initiative. After completing the two-year curriculum, students earn a process operations technical certificate, as well as several other skills-based and industry-relevant certifications.
