Mike Mandina Chair FAME; President, Optimax FAME WELCOME, 2016 REVIEW
Interns 2016 Review 18 FAME member companies hosted over 100 student interns during the Summer of 2016 Hailing from high schools, community colleges, and four year colleges, these workers had the benefit of learning on site and will be future assets to our workforce pipeline. Tours FAME member companies toured over 500 students, teachers, counselors and parents through their facilities in 2016. FAME is an active participant in Finger Lakes Works With Their Hands, Manufacturing Day, MCC s High Tech Exploration Night, and numerous other career fairs and manufacturing events throughout the year. Education FAME members have supported US FIRST LEGO teams for the last eight years, and have sponsored 33 different middle school teams for competition.
2016 Review SAME East Side 12 Grads Summer 2016 marked the expansion of the SAME Summer Advanced Manufacturing Experience to the east side of the Finger Lakes region! Made possible by a grant from the AT&T Aspire Foundation, and partners Monroe Community College and WFL BOCES The program was located at the WFL BOCES Williamson and Stanley locations. Tours at Harbec, Optimax Systems and OptiPro Systems. Participating students (9th and 10th graders), had the opportunity to experience first hand advanced manufacturing skills and earn 3 free college credits through MCC
2016 Review SAME West Side 18 Grads SAME west side program graduated 18 students and had nearly 100% attendance. Students toured Harbec, Micro Instruments, Optimax Systems, Parlec, SPX, Sydor Optics, The Gleason Works, and MCC s Applied Tech Center. Many of the students advanced through the projects with little help from the SAME staff, and there were many applicants to choose from as this program has grown in scope and size each year! Four of the students in this program were female, and the graduation ceremony was held at MCC s Applied Technology Center. Students in this program also earned 3 free college credits through MCC. A terrific turnout for both programs and planning is already underway for 2017!
