From computers to cars, every year companies in the U.S. make $1.6 trillion worth of the things we use every day. That takes a lot of people - nearly 700,000 in South Carolina and 12 million in the United States. Manufacturers routinely struggle to find qualified employees for today's high-tech, high paying jobs. Manufacturers need more workers with advanced training and skills, especially in the machine tool field.
