For ages Writer’s Group Thursday, November 15, 6 - 7:30 pm PCC to Purchase Property in Columbia County continued from front page approved the first OMIC registered apprenticeship standards for machinists. • In August 2018 PCC brought in a na- tional workforce agency, the National Coalition for Advanced Technology Centers, to host OMIC training center stakeholder meetings and provide rec- ommendations on the facility. • In October 2018 PCC collaborated with OMIC R&D and a variety of com- munity and business and industry part- ners to host the first “Makers Gone Pro West” event. More than 230 local area high school students and nearly 40 man- ufacturers, makers, and robotics teams participated. Also in October, PCC hosted a kick-off meeting for a new K-12 council, in partnership with Stand for Children. School district superintendents and PCC leaders attended the event, which illus- trated how OMIC is establishing strong pathways for both Career Technical Ed- ucation and transfer students in the local area. “OMIC will be transformation- al for Columbia County and northwest Oregon, and I am excited to see it con- tinue to grow and move forward,” said U.S. Representative Suzanne Bonamici, whose congressional district includes Columbia County. “Advanced manufac- turing has a bright future in Oregon, and the training center will provide workers with both the classroom and on-the-job learning they need to fill high-demand, living wage jobs in advanced manufac- turing. I am proud to be a champion for OMIC and will continue to support ef- forts that use education to strengthen our local economy,” said Bonamici.
