Apple has announced it will open the Apple Manufacturing Academy in Detroit this month — its first program dedicated to helping businesses adopt “smart manufacturing” technologies. The academy will train companies nationwide to transition to advanced manufacturing by integrating artificial intelligence, automation, and data-driven production techniques.
“We’re thrilled to welcome companies from across the country to the Apple Manufacturing Academy starting next month,” said Sabih Khan, Apple’s chief operating officer. “Apple works with suppliers in all 50 states because we know advanced manufacturing is vital to American innovation and leadership. With this new programming, we’re excited to help even more businesses implement smart manufacturing so they can unlock amazing opportunities for their companies and our country.”
The initiative is part of Apple’s pledge to invest more than $600 billion in the U.S. over the next four years.
Training sessions will cover topics such as machine learning and deep learning in manufacturing, automation in product assembly, using manufacturing data to improve quality, and applying digital technologies to enhance operations.
Later this year, the academy will also launch virtual programming, including a skills development curriculum focused on areas like project management and manufacturing process optimization.
