Workforce Development Programs
The SEMI Foundation takes an employer-led, worker-centric, holistic approach to workforce development. Our work supports pathways for both future and current talent to find their career and purpose in the microelectronics industry. From grade school awareness initiatives to programs that help veterans transition to industry jobs to reskilling and upskilling training for incumbent workers, we help people from all walks of life find their futures in the exciting world of chips.
Below, you will find links and information on SEMI Foundation programs and initiatives, and please feel free to reach out to us at semifoundation@semi.org.
