Westminster, MD, Friday, November 18, 2022 – Carroll County Workforce Development (CCWD) was recognized as a 2022 Champion of Manufacturing at the Regional Manufacturing Institute of Maryland’s Maryland Manufacturing Celebration on November 17th at Martin’s West.

Director of Economic Development Jack Lyburn said, “We are particularly proud to nominate and recognize the Carroll County Workforce Development team for training 30 welding students through a partnership with Earlbeck Gases and Technologies using its mobile classroom. This new initiative helped our local manufacturers meet some of their hiring needs and created new small business enterprises. The 30 trained welders earned 68 American Welding Society Certifications in nine weeks and Carroll County employers had an opportunity to meet and hire the trainees as part of the program – that’s a win-win.”

Carroll County Department of Economic Development was proud to sponsor the 2022 Carroll County Champions which include:

Carroll County Workforce Development – Workforce

Carroll Community College – Workforce

Earth Animal Riverstone – Energy Efficiency & Sustainability
