FACTORY AUTOMATION COMPETITION
INTRODUCTION FACTORY AUTOMATION COMPETITION
There has never been a higher demand for advanced manufacturing and STEM- related jobs, with an estimated 2.5 million STEM jobs going unfilled today.
The focus of this program is to offer a comprehensive and scalable competition that helps change attitudes toward advanced manufacturing careers, bestow critical workforce skills, reduce the growing skills gap, and ultimately create a stable pipeline of industry 4.0 employees. The Robotics Education & Competition Foundation’s mission is to provide every educator with competition, education, and workforce readiness programs to increase student engagement in science, technology, engineering, math, and computer science. The Factory Automation Competition is a classroom-based competition that provides students from across the world the opportunity to integrate and recognize how STEM skills translate to the workforce. This unique manufacturing competition exposes students to robotics manufacturing careers while providing curriculum, training, and hands-on problem- solving skills. The REC Foundation aims to improve workforce education and interest by providing a clear path for students to prepare for advanced manufacturing careers, help close manufacturing skills gaps for many employers, and prepare the future manufacturing workforce for continual development.
