For more than 15 years, Inductotherm Corp., based in Rancocas, has provided Burlington County Institute of Technology (BCIT) students in various trades programs with work-based learning opportunities. Employees at Inductotherm further support students’ career exploration and training by serving as guest speakers and volunteering on program advisory committees.
BCIT values this partnership, recently recognizing Inductotherm as the district’s 2024 Business Partner of the Year.
“We are committed to staying engaged with the community and with schools that are advancing manufacturing as a career choice,” said Inductotherm’s Marcelo Paiva.
As a global leader in designing and manufacturing induction melting, heating and pouring systems for metal and material processing, Inductotherm Corp. welcomes students studying a range of trades to learn more about opportunities at the company for work-based learning and future employment. So far, BCIT high school and adult students in Welding, HVAC and Electrical Technology programs have benefitted from the partnership between their school and Inductotherm Corp.
“Inductotherm deserves this award because they provide numerous job opportunities across multiple trades for our high school students and adult education,” said Danut Chiriac, Electrical Technology instructor at BCIT. “Our students consistently share positive feedback from their experiences. Inductotherm serves as a ramp for the young generation to get to the next level.”
