This paper presents a model based on classic project management and systems analysis that was created and utilized by the University of Pittsburgh Department of Industrial Engineering Manufacturing Assistance Center (MAC) to develop an accelerated manufacturing training program for displaced workers. The following details the motivation for this initiative, how the curriculum was developed, and the design and implementation tasks. Results of two sessions, including a follow-up on subsequent job placement, are presented. The paper concludes with a discussion of future enhancements to the program and suggestions for extending the model into other types of training.
