About the Industry 4.0 Academy

The Industry 4.0 Academy program is an initiative to assist transitioning military service members into cutting-edge robotics and manufacturing jobs. Starting with the existing skills service members gained while in service, we provide supplemental training as necessary to meet industry requirements. We then connect pre-trained service members with our industry partners who are hiring. We are a national consortium of partners and experts in Industry 4.0, including the DoD SkillBridge program. Our pilot program in Dallas, Texas, includes an educational partnership with Dallas College. This pilot program is funded with a grant from the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute.
