00:00:54.687 --> 00:00:56.489
STATE, BUT NOBLE COUNTY IN

00:00:56.556 --> 00:00:58.158
PARTICULAR IS VERY, VERY HEAVY,

00:00:58.224 --> 00:00:59.793
VERY INTENSIVE IN THE

00:00:59.859 --> 00:01:00.994
MANUFACTURING SECTOR.

00:01:01.060 --> 00:01:04.497
>> YES, THE STATE'S GOT A LOT OF

00:01:04.564 --> 00:01:05.031
MANUFACTURING.

00:01:05.098 --> 00:01:06.132
NORTHEAST INDIANA AS A REGION

00:01:06.199 --> 00:01:07.033
HAS A LOT.

00:01:07.100 --> 00:01:08.435
BUT WE'RE ONE OF THE TOP

00:01:08.501 --> 00:01:09.068
CONCENTRATIONS OF MANUFACTURING

00:01:09.135 --> 00:01:12.739
IN THE STATE WITH IS 22

00:01:12.806 --> 00:01:13.973
MANUFACTURERS THAT EMPLOY 10,000

00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:16.910
OF OUR WORKERS, PAY HIGHER THAN

00:01:16.976 --> 00:01:19.078
AVERAGE WAGES AND THEY'RE

00:01:19.145 --> 00:01:19.846
INVESTING MANY MILLIONS OF

00:01:19.913 --> 00:01:20.947
DOLLARS EVERY YEAR IN NEW

00:01:21.014 --> 00:01:22.248
TECHNOLOGIES TO ENSURE THAT THEY

00:01:22.315 --> 00:01:23.950
CONTINUE TO GROW AND THRIVE.

00:01:24.017 --> 00:01:26.386
>> THAT'S WHAT PROMPTED THIS NEW

00:01:26.453 --> 00:01:27.454
LEARNING LAB REALLY.

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:29.222
YOU FOUND OUT THAT THERE'S A

00:01:29.289 --> 00:01:31.758
REAL CONCERN OF A SHORTAGE OF

00:01:31.825 --> 00:01:33.259
EMPLOYEES OR POTENTIAL EMPLOYEES

00:01:33.326 --> 00:01:37.297
IN THAT ADVANCED MANUFACTURING,

00:01:37.363 --> 00:01:38.932
THAT INDUSTRY 4.0, THOSE TALENTS

00:01:38.998 --> 00:01:41.134
WERE REALLY LACKING IN THE

00:01:41.201 --> 00:01:41.868
REGION.

00:01:41.935 --> 00:01:42.735
>> YEAH.

00:01:42.802 --> 00:01:44.070
TALENT WAS IN SHORT SUPPLY

00:01:44.137 --> 00:01:45.939
REALLY ACROSS THE BOARD, BUT IT

00:01:46.005 --> 00:01:48.241
WAS REALLY HIGHLY CRITICAL

00:01:48.308 --> 00:01:50.243
SHORTAGE IN THE AREA OF ADVANCED

00:01:50.310 --> 00:01:51.644
TECHNOLOGIES, AUTOMATION,

00:01:51.711 --> 00:01:53.179
INDUSTRIAL ROBOTICS AND

00:01:53.246 --> 00:01:55.248
PROGRAMMING, DIGITAL CLOUD-BASED

00:01:55.315 --> 00:01:55.782
APPLICATIONS IN THE

00:01:55.849 --> 00:01:56.583
MANUFACTURING PROCESS.

00:01:56.649 --> 00:01:58.318
SO, WE BEGIN TO SEE A LOT OF

00:01:58.384 --> 00:02:00.954
THINGS ON THE FACTORY FLOOR,

00:02:01.020 --> 00:02:02.388
SMART FACTORY APPLICATIONS AND

00:02:02.455 --> 00:02:04.557
WE DID NOT HAVE A SYSTEM UP HERE

00:02:04.624 --> 00:02:07.727
TO DEVELOP THE TALENT THAT THESE

00:02:07.794 --> 00:02:08.495
MANUFACTURERS WOULD NEED IN

00:02:08.561 --> 00:02:11.397
ORDER TO ENSURE SUCCESS.

00:02:11.464 --> 00:02:12.565
>> ALL RIGHT.

00:02:12.632 --> 00:02:14.767
TALK ABOUT WHAT BOTH ADULTS AND

00:02:14.834 --> 00:02:16.135
TRADITIONAL STUDENTS WHO WILL GO

00:02:16.202 --> 00:02:17.704
THROUGH THIS CENTER, WHAT THEY

00:02:17.770 --> 00:02:18.605
ARE LEARNING.

00:02:18.671 --> 00:02:20.440
THE TYPES OF TECHNOLOGY THAT ARE

00:02:20.507 --> 00:02:21.140
SHOWCASED THERE BECAUSE IT

00:02:21.207 --> 00:02:22.442
REALLY IS THAT LEADING-EDGE,

00:02:22.509 --> 00:02:23.843
THAT CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY

00:02:23.910 --> 00:02:25.011
THEY'LL BE EXPOSED TO.

00:02:25.078 --> 00:02:26.913
>> IT ABSOLUTELY IS.

00:02:26.980 --> 00:02:29.916
WE WILL OFFER THROUGH OUR CTE

00:02:29.983 --> 00:02:31.684

EVERY SCHOOL DAY AND THEY WILL

00:02:37.790 --> 00:02:39.492
LEARN FOR TWO YEARS A VARIETY OF

00:02:39.559 --> 00:02:39.859
APPLICATIONS.

00:02:39.926 --> 00:02:43.329
EVERYTHING FROM SENSORS AND

00:02:43.396 --> 00:02:45.532
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING, WHICH IS

00:02:45.598 --> 00:02:46.833
3D PRINTING OF PARTS, THEY'RE

00:02:46.900 --> 00:02:50.303
GOING TO LEARN A SIGNIFICANT

00:02:50.370 --> 00:02:51.337
AMOUNT OF CLOUD-BASED

00:02:51.404 --> 00:02:52.972
COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, WHERE THE

00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:54.941
FORK TRUCKS ARE TALKING TO

00:02:55.008 --> 00:02:56.276
DRONES WHICH ARE TALKING TO

00:02:56.342 --> 00:02:57.143
COMPUTERS WHICH ARE TALKING TO

00:02:57.210 --> 00:02:58.678
PEOPLE AND MANAGING THAT WHOLE

00:02:58.745 --> 00:02:59.546
COMMUNICATION OF SYSTEM AND

00:02:59.612 --> 00:03:00.079
PRODUCT FLOW.

00:03:00.146 --> 00:03:01.548
THEY'LL LEARN ALL OF THAT.

00:03:01.614 --> 00:03:02.849
ADULTS WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO TAKE

00:03:02.916 --> 00:03:04.817
WHAT WE CALL MICROCLASSES, WHERE

00:03:04.884 --> 00:03:06.352
IF THEY JUST NEED A CLASS IN ONE

00:03:06.419 --> 00:03:07.020
PARTICULAR TECHNOLOGY, THEY'LL

00:03:07.086 --> 00:03:08.688
BE ABLE TO ARRANGE AND USE OUR

00:03:08.755 --> 00:03:09.222
LAB FOR THAT.

00:03:09.289 --> 00:03:10.456
IT'S GOING TO BE AVAILABLE FOR

00:03:10.523 --> 00:03:11.624
YOUNG STUDENTS AND EXISTING

00:03:13.593 --> 00:03:13.826
WELL.

00:03:13.893 --> 00:03:16.496
>> ONLY HAVE ABOUT 30 SECONDS,

00:03:16.563 --> 00:03:16.796
GARY.

00:03:16.863 --> 00:03:18.765
A LOT OF REGIONS TALK ABOUT THE

00:03:18.831 --> 00:03:20.199
NEED TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS,

00:03:20.266 --> 00:03:20.967
NOT MANY PULL IT OFF.

00:03:21.034 --> 00:03:23.303
HOW DID YOU MAKE IT HAPPEN?

00:03:23.369 --> 00:03:25.805
I KNOW IT WAS A COLLABORATION

00:03:25.872 --> 00:03:27.774
BETWEEN BE NOBLE AND A NUMBER OF

00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.542
GROUPS IN THE COMMUNITY.

00:03:29.609 --> 00:03:33.379
>> GREAT PARTNERS, A GREAT CITY.

00:03:33.446 --> 00:03:34.280

TRAINING PROVIDERS, HIGH SCHOOL

00:03:36.282 --> 00:03:36.583
SYSTEMS.

00:03:36.649 --> 00:03:38.184
HONESTLY, I DIDN'T FIND ANYBODY

00:03:38.251 --> 00:03:39.118
THAT DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS

00:03:39.185 --> 00:03:39.852
SOMETHING WE SHOULD DO.

00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:41.821
WE ENDED UP WITH A LONG LIST OF

00:03:41.888 --> 00:03:43.456
PARTNERS ALL WORKING FOR THE

00:03:43.523 --> 00:03:44.924
SAME GOAL AND IN ABOUT A YEAR

00:03:44.991 --> 00:03:54.968
WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO PULL IT OFF.

00:03:55.034 --> 00:03:57.270
>> GARYGATMAN 4.0 INC, A NEW

00:03:57.337 --> 00:03:58.338
