More Media Coverage on MCC's Pilot Project, Grant Award
Spectrum News Rochester recently aired a segment announcing a $1.5 million grant awarded to MCC by the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation to help fund a pilot project.
The project's goal is to increase the pool of technicians in western New York for occupations involving robotics/automation, mechatronics, precision machining, skilled trades, and optics fabrication.
Led by MCC's Economic and Workforce Development Center, the project aims to serve 230 students over the next three years. Project partners include BOCES, career tech-focused charter high schools, Greece Central School District, Rochester City School District and regional Workforce Investment Boards; partnerships will increase as the project evolves.
