Who Benefits from MEERA?
Children & Parents
Through MEERA, your child will discover the world of manufacturing, where creative thinking and a passion for new ideas drive every job.
There’s a renewed interest and need for manufacturing in the US, and your child can learn about exciting and innovative careers that are essential for our nation’s success.
We’ll inspire your child, fire their imagination, and expose them to learning they wouldn’t encounter anywhere else.
Best of all, we’re teaching more than manufacturing skills. We’re instilling essential life skills.
Your child will learn how to problem solve, work as a team, and resolve challenging situations. They may not choose manufacturing in the end, but exposure to this field will make more well-rounded, open minded, and better-prepared students for what’s ahead.
It’s never too early — or too late — to introduce your child to possible career paths. Our mission is to inspire the next generation of creators and doers. Sound like a good fit for your child?
Educators
Students are more engaged when they learn hands-on, when their assignments are project-based and real-world specific. That’s exactly where MEERA excels.
We expose children to cutting edge equipment and technology that excites them and sparks their curiosity. Your students will learn about robotics, engineering, advanced technology, and more. Every lesson motivates and challenges. Every lesson is fun.
Implementing MEERA at your school couldn’t be easier.
We’ll train you, equip you, provide detailed class curricula, and even tailor aspects of the program around the manufacturing needs in your area.
Everyone wins. Students embrace new technologies and learn about possible paths that weren’t on their radar before. They also learn soft skills such as leadership, critical thinking, and teamwork, qualities that will serve them well no matter what career they choose.
You and your school contribute to the economic vitality of your communities by teaching relevant skills for local jobs. Best of all, you’ll feel proud to help children find the right fit for their talents, connecting them to a path that makes them happy.
