Strengthening the competitiveness, knowledge and innovation capabilities of Canadian manufacturers is the driving force behind a new alliance between Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) and the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME).

The two leading organizations will combine efforts in membership development, event planning, professional and workforce activities and programs to bring a full complement of resources to Canadian manufacturers, both from the overall company perspective as well as at the individual practitioner level.

CME supports manufacturing companies in developing long-term visions for Canadian manufacturing, while helping them address challenges in a rapidly growing global market. As an individual member-based professional society, SME works with companies and individuals to strengthen manufacturing workforce competency through educational resources, training, certification, and professional networking.

Together, the organizations will collaborate on joint membership packages, industry events, workforce development initiatives, and creating awareness with the public that manufacturing is a critical part of the economy and a rewarding career choice.

F. Brian Holmes, CMfgE, SME President, is enthusiastic about this alliance. “I am very excited about the Memorandum of Understanding between SME and Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters. It will enable both associations to work together to enhance the capabilities of the Canadian manufacturing workforce."

"I look forward to the opportunities the alliance brings, because both organizations are looking for the same result: a stronger manufacturing sector through technology and education of the current and future workforce.”
