Advanced Manufacturing Career

The Kanawha Valley FAME Chapter is a grassroots, employer driven program focused on developing highly skilled Advanced Manufacturing Technicians (AMTs).

The Kanawha Valley FAME Chapter has been founded by key local employers and key community partners. Over time, this program is designed to create a pipeline of highly trained individuals who can transition to full-time employment upon graduation. For participating companies, this program is critical to fill the skills gaps in advanced manufacturing operations.
