When teachers experience manufacturing firsthand, everything changes.
Through WestCOMP’s Educator Manufacturing Experience, teachers step inside real facilities, explore careers, and bring that knowledge back to students.
That’s how awareness turns into action.

Most job seekers aren’t starting with applications—they’re starting with research.
What does your company look like online?
If your website and social media don’t reflect modern manufacturing, you’re missing talent before they even consider applying.

Your next employee is already researching you.
Are they seeing your technology, your team, and your culture?
Or are they seeing nothing at all?
Visibility matters more than ever.

What a great week celebrating the future of manufacturing, engineering, automation, robotics, and skilled trades in West Central Ohio.

On Wednesday, WestCOMP was honored to award our 2026 STEM Scholarships at Wright State University Lake Campus. These $1,000 scholarships help support students as they pursue education and training in high-demand STEM fields that are critical to the success of our region’s workforce.

Congratulations to this year’s scholarship recipients:

• Ethan Osterholt
• Trent Paul
• Drew Meyer
• Tristan Post
• Celeste Taylor

These students have demonstrated academic achievement, leadership, and a commitment to pursuing careers that will help drive innovation and growth throughout our communities.

One of the most rewarding parts of what we do at WestCOMP is investing in the next generation. Every scholarship awarded represents more than financial assistance. It represents an opportunity, a future career pathway, and another step toward building a stronger workforce pipeline for manufacturers across West Central Ohio.

The future of manufacturing depends on talented young people who are willing to learn, grow, and lead. We are proud to support these students as they begin the next chapter of their educational and professional journeys.

Thank you to our manufacturing partners, educators, families, and community leaders who continue to support workforce development and career awareness efforts throughout the region. Together, we are helping ensure that the future of manufacturing remains strong in West Central Ohio.

Please join us in congratulating our 2026 STEM Scholarship recipients and wishing them continued success.

Apprenticeships are changing the way people enter the workforce.
They remove barriers, create opportunity, and build confidence through real experience.
This is how careers start strong.
