This 13-page guide, from the Minnesota State Advanced Manufacturing Center of Excellence, is intended to help manufacturers create partnerships with local schools.  The guide includes partnership ideas that "...range from tours of facilities, to internships, and everything in between." Partnering with a school is a great way for manufacturing facilities "to help youth connect classroom learning to a real business environment."

This guide includes a table of contents and the following sections: Why Adopt-A School, How to Start the Process, How You Can Help, Addendum A/Addendum B - Communication Checklists, Success Story, and Acknowledgements. The How You Can Help section includes information on how to facilitate or participate in on-site events, equipment donations, student interactions, work-based learning programs, career counseling, student organizations, and education programs.
