Partnering with Schools to Advance Industry Education
Helping to grow our future workforce one student at a time.
Adopt-a-School
Microvellum's Adopt-a-school program was created to support computer-aided design, drafting, engineering, and manufacturing (CAD/CAM/CIM) education, involvement, and activities by high school, college, and trade school students and educators throughout the world.
Bridging the Knowledge Gap
Microvellum's eLearning program, a part of Microvellum University and led by RJ Pranski, an industry expert with over 20 years of experience, offers students and educators free access to learning content, videos, training plans, and sample projects to help streamline the learning process and refine their skills.
The eLearning program provides teachers with a platform to not only grow their skills but also a means to expedite the implementation of Microvellum software within their CTE programs.
Connect with Key People
To get the adoption process started, you will first need to identify the key players that will be involved in the conversation. Once you have identified the key players, you will want to give each of them an opportunity to share ideas and ask questions about the proposed adoption and plan. Help them understand what a win looks like for the students and for your company.
Together, create an adoption plan that will bring benefit to the school, you and ultimately improve educational outcomes for students.
What our Partners are saying
"The success we've seen at the Mill would not have happened without the generosity of our partners to help elevate the skill level of students in our program."
Shane Skalla, Industry Partnership Liason at The MiLL
