Kellanova's pilot training program addresses US manufacturing's skilled labor shortage.

Manufacturers are facing a shortage of skilled labor, particularly for highly skilled roles like electricians and mechanics. A pilot training program by Kellanova aims to fast-track careers and address this gap. The program serves as a talent pipeline for higher-skilled jobs, with the Jackson, TN, plant requiring 65 trained electricians to maintain and repair equipment. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 6% annual growth in electrician employment until 2032, twice the rate of other occupations.
