WE ARE InFAME!

Recently, students, faculty and participating employers gathered at Ivy Tech Community College in Valparaiso, Ind. to witness the inaugural "Signing Day" of the South Shore chapter of Indiana’s Federation for Advanced Manufacturing Education (InFAME).

This unique, earn-while-you-learn experience provides students with formal classroom training two days a week, plus a part-time position at a sponsoring company three days a week. Upon completion, participants will earn a two-year associate's degree from Ivy Tech with potentially no debt and valuable workforce skills gained.

Congratulations to the Summer 2026 Nursing Class on your pinning ceremony achievement!

We are proud to celebrate all you have accomplished and cannot wait to see what comes next. 💚💚💚

Join us next week at our Michigan City or Valparaiso campuses for an Open House event! 🤝

• Michigan City: August 4 from 1 pm - 5 pm
