To promote continuous improvement among local manufacturers, the NMA has instituted a Training & Development initiative in which all members are encouraged to participate.
The NMA acts as a facilitator, liaison, and coach to its members by:
- Encouraging companies to adopt high performance techniques;
- Recommending professional consultants and trainers;
- Coordinating workshops, seminars, and other training opportunities;
- Providing access to information resources, online and in person;
- Developing metrics for performance evaluation; and,
- Promoting and sharing best practices
