Job Description Manufacturing Trainer Two Positions · One in Pennsylvania · One in West Virginia Virginia Manufacturers Association | Manufacturing Skills Institute About VMA and MSI The Virginia Manufacturers Association (VMA) has been the Commonwealth's leading manufacturing trade association and industry advocate for 104 years, representing Virginia's manufacturers since 1922. VMA delivers this program through its national workforce education affiliate, the Manufacturing Skills Institute (MSI), which builds the talent pipeline that manufacturers across the country need to compete and grow. Together, VMA-MSI operates Registered Apprenticeship training, manufacturing skill credentials, employer training, and a national Made-in-America credentialing network. About the Program These positions support Path to Prime, a VMA-MSI program expanding hands-on manufacturing training and industry-recognized credentials for small manufacturers across Virginia, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania. The program is funded through the U.S. Small Business Administration Empower to Grow (E2G) grant awarded to VMA-MSI in 2026. In Pennsylvania and West Virginia, VMA-MSI works alongside the state manufacturing associations, who serve as in-state partners. Their coordinators know the manufacturers in their state and identify which firms need help. You are the person who delivers it. About the Role VMA-MSI is hiring two Manufacturing Trainers for this program: one based in Pennsylvania and one based in West Virginia. The two positions are identical in scope and differ only in the state served. You apply for the position in your state, and the two trainers work as counterparts, sharing what they learn as the program runs. You will teach production workers at manufacturers across your state and move them through MSI's industry-recognized credentials. This is a teaching job. You will run hands-on, in-person training for working machinists, operators, technicians, and frontline supervisors, taking them through MSI's credential programs: Manufacturing Technician Level 1 (MT1), Manufacturing Specialist (MS), World Class Manufacturing (WCM), Manufacturing Frontline Leader (MFL), Industrial Safety Readiness Training (ISRT), OSHA 10 and OSHA 30, and the Advanced Manufacturing Machine Operator (AMMO) Registered Apprenticeship. You are MSI's presence in your state. You work from a home office, deliver training on manufacturing floors and in employer training spaces, and use the Path to Prime partner program site hosted by the state manufacturing association. You will come to the Richmond office periodically for training and grant team meetings. VMA-MSI also installs advanced manufacturing equipment at that program site, including a 3D printer, a metrology scanner, a PLC training rig, condition-monitoring equipment, and AR and VR systems. You do not need digital twin or Siemens software expertise to do this job, and we are not asking you to teach that material. VMA-MSI has a dedicated technologist and a Siemens solution partner who handle that side of the lab. The equipment is there if it strengthens a session you are running, and our team supports you in using it. Your job is the credential training and the hands-on instruction manufacturers need on their own floors. This is a collaborative instructor role, not a solo one. Manufacturers are not the only organizations in your state working on this problem. Community colleges, technical and career centers, universities, workforce boards, and other trade associations are training the same workforce, and part of your job is working alongside them rather than around them. That can mean bringing MSI credentials to an education partner's students, helping their instructors get up to speed on our credential programs, co-delivering a session, sharing curriculum, or connecting a manufacturer to a local program that already meets their need. Where another organization is better positioned to serve a firm, you point the firm to them. Alongside the standard credential programs, you will customize training for individual employers. When a manufacturer needs something the catalog does not cover, you will work with them to understand what their people need and build a program that fits, drawing on MSI's existing curriculum library. You are based in your state, but you are part of the VMA-MSI team in Virginia. You are not a remote hire left to figure it out alone. The MSI curriculum team works with you on credential content and on building custom programs for your employers, so you are adapting from an existing library rather than authoring from a blank page. MSI's credentialing operation handles certification, testing, and credential records. The program's multimedia producer builds training media to support your sessions, including media shot on your employers' own equipment. The Richmond lab staff support the advanced manufacturing equipment at your program site. The project team handles employer assignments, scheduling support, and reporting. You will meet regularly with the Virginia team by video and come to Richmond periodically for training and grant team meetings. Your counterpart in the other state is doing the same job you are, and the two of you are expected to compare notes. This role suits a generalist. You do not need to be the deepest expert in any one discipline, but you do need to understand how a production floor actually works and be able to teach across the range of skills it takes to run one. This role is for someone who is credible in front of a crew. The people in your sessions are working adults with real production experience. They will know within ten minutes whether you have actually done the work. You do not need to arrive already certified in MSI's programs. VMA-MSI will certify you to instruct the MSI credentials you will be teaching.
