Roane State receives $2.86 million grant to train technicians in advanced materials

Abstract:
"The AMTEC's initial focus will be work in carbon fiber and solar energy," said Dr. Lou Rabinowitz, Roane State Director of Workforce Connections. "The project also lays the groundwork for emerging advanced materials workforce needs including nanotechnology, nuclear energy, battery storage and more. For those seeking high-tech, good-paying jobs, the AMTEC will be a tremendous resource for years to come. Entry-level wages in this field are $20 or more per hour."
