Laser Precision has been fortunate to be close with others who work for the betterment of the community. These include the College of Lake County, Lake County Tech Campus, Workforce Development and Lake County Partners. Together, these organizations form the Workforce Ecosystem of Lake County, whose focus is to build a talent pipeline from the ground up that aligns with the region’s future workforce demands.
Kim Wimer, Laser Precision’s Human Resources Manager, coordinates with the group. She visits local high schools and technical colleges to talk about student career paths. “We’ve also begun hosting student tours from local schools so the students and parents can see a modern manufacturing facility for themselves,” she said.
