, Make andTake: Careers in Manufacturing

This week, students from 8 schools across Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, and Perry Counties joined us at the CAIU for a hands-on Interactive Discovery Lab exploring careers in manufacturing.

And they left with something big: a clearer picture of what comes next.

What students told us:

✅ 95% feel more confident about their future
✅ 95% are more motivated to pursue training or education
✅ 82% said the session supported their mental health by clarifying life after high school
✅ 68% discovered a new career
✅ 64% plan to explore the field further
✅ 55% gained awareness of Work-Based Learning opportunities
✅ 36% connected with professionals and exchanged contact info

In their own words:
💬 I learned about an amazing pre-apprenticeship program thats available to me that Id really like to pursue.
💬 There are so many more career options available than I was previously considering.
💬 I learned how to make robots and how to manage them.
💬 There are places for me to go. I need to research and plan transportation and maybe opportunities closer.
That last quote says it all. Awareness is the first step, and access is the next one.

A big thanks to Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. for hosting our Shipping and Transportation Career Connections session!

Freight and logistics keep literally everything moving — from the food on our tables to the packages at our doors — and the industry is actively recruiting the next generation of drivers, dispatchers, and logistics coordinators

🚛 The U.S. trucking industry will need nearly 500,000 new drivers by the end of 2026 to keep up with demand and replace retiring workers.

🎉 Thank you to the students, teachers, and staff from Greencastle-Antrim Area School District, Harrisburg School District, Lower Dauphin School District, and Mechanicsburg Area School District for joining us!

🙌 And a huge thank-you to our incredible industry partner — Old Dominion Freight Lines — for sharing your time, expertise, and real career stories.

Standing on an actual loading dock and hearing directly from people who route freight across the country hits differently than reading about supply chains in a textbook — thats the kind of authentic career intro PCD is built to deliver.
