NMMA Expands Workforce Recruiting Efforts

The National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) has created two new opportunities for NMMA members to help expand awareness for jobs in boating and engage/educate companies in solutions to recruit new hires.

At the end of June, NMMA is participating in the annual conference for school guidance counselors, the ASCA Annual Conference. The objective is to market the boating industry as a career option to the next generation of workers. The conference will attract more than 2,500 school guidance counselors from throughout the U.S. (K-12 and some college level). 

On September 30, NMMA is hosting a new, full-day Super Session at IBEX in Tampa, Florida, focused on workforce development. Challenges & Solutions, Workforce Development Super Session at IBEX will be the first time the entire industry gathers to explore solutions. The seminar is expected to sell out with a limit of 100 attendees. Registration opens in May, and sponsorship opportunities are available now. Yamaha Marine Group and Safe Harbor Marinas have committed as Gold Level sponsors for the Super Sessions.
