Innovative Manufacturing

Home to a young, skilled workforce, wide range of manufacturing training programs and degrees, central location and superior transportation network, Greensboro-High Point is one of the most advanced manufacturing clusters in the Southeast. Excellent workforce training programs and apprenticeships at Guilford Technical Community College (GTCC) and other regional colleges provide students with the skills that manufacturing companies are looking for.  The $35.5 million GTCC Center for Advanced Manufacturing covers nearly six acres and gives five different college programs access to state-of-the-art equipment. Our local public school system prepares high school students for their future careers, with Smith High School offering curriculum from the Acadamy of Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering.
