Four schools across four states battle in one advanced manufacturing competition – this is Project MFG’s National Challenge that premiered in a new pilot, Clash of Trades, on YouTube, April 20, 2021. Clash of Trades lets you experience what it’s like to put trade skills like welding, machining, programming to the test from the viewpoint of student teams who are learning to master them. See what it’s like to create, compete and solve when inevitable surprises and mistakes happen.

Each team has a story and a unique approach to completing the challenge that is judged by industry and a panel of expert judges. The show will change the perception of the skilled trades by highlighting those who enter the diverse fields and showcasing the high-tech, future-focused work being done in the U.S. manufacturing industry.  Learn more about Project MFG.
