MIAT College of Technology Canton issued the following announcement on Aug. 20.
Storch Products has expanded its financial and operational support to MIAT College of Technology in Canton with a $15,000 press brake that was delivered to the school in June. This is the latest example of Storch supporting the ongoing training of skilled trade and manufacturing talent in the Metro Detroit area and why the magnet manufacturer and distributor is an industry leader in welding technology.
Its President Matt Carr became an Advisory Board Member for MIAT’s Michigan location in 2019. Since then, he and the Storch ownership group have provided a wealth of fabrication support and experience to MIAT and its more than 100-plus students in the Welding Technology Program.
One of the main benefits of Storch working with MIAT is a level of collaboration that is extremely beneficial to both parties. MIAT students can apply for jobs and internships at the Livonia manufacturer, but they are also learning both technical and career skills from Storch’s association with MIAT. Carr has already scheduled tours of Storch’s plant for MIAT students and hopes his team can serve as a bit of a mentorship role.
