Education + Business Summit 2024

Join us as we take a dive into certifications from SACA (Smart Automation Certification Alliance), MSSC (Manufacturing Skill Standards Council), and PMMI (Association for Packaging & Processing Technologies). These powerful certifications may be able to be integrated into your existing Mechatronics and Manufacturing curriculums and existing equipment. Students can obtain core technical knowledge and skills needed by front-line production workers by pursuing certifications offered by MSSC. Students may also want to explore advanced Mechatronics certifications offered by PMMI, which is the leading global resource for the packaging and processing industry. Many students and current workers will also be interested in the advanced knowledge and skills required in smart factories on the frontier of Industry 4.0. SACA will offer Industry 4.0 certifications that focus on “connected systems” skills that address the integration of Industry 4.0 technology into advanced industrial processes.
