the collective voice for manufacturing
The Northwest Ohio Manufacturing Alliance (NOMA) is a grassroots effort driven by employers to identify issues surrounding workforce in manufacturing and take the lead in implementing change. Through meaningful partnerships, NOMA works with educators, workforce boards, and economic development organizations to promote manufacturing as a career of choice.
NOMA Offers:
- A collaborative voice – Partner organizations work together to create a unified marketing message
- Education & empowerment of the next generation – Education partners work with student influencers to present manufacturing as a rewarding career option, dispelling outdated and misled opinions about the available career pathways
- Engagement of the community - Develop a marketing message that can be used by the community at large to present manufacturing as a career path, life sustaining skill set, place to grow and opportunity to make a living and support a family
NOMA’s Vision:
- Influence educators and economic development groups
- Be the regional voice for manufacturers in the six-county region
- Enhance the image of manufacturing and career opportunities in the region
- Create a seamless pathway from K-12 through post-secondary education to prepare communities for the ever-changing skills needed in manufacturing
