Mobile Device's Effects

I believe mobile devices align with the CMMA's purpose by allowing easy access to social media no matter where that user is and letting them gain info on the association and their purpose. With an expanded social media plan put into action by the CMMA, this would allow those who don't have a general understanding of a manufacturing association to gain knowledge. They still haven't technically adapted to this generation of technology and social media and that is why we are working with them at this point. It can adapt in the future by sharing the different opportunities with a younger generation that manufacturing can offer. They can be able to do this by having a strong social media platform on many different sites as to reach all interested in manufacturing and any possible opportunities or apprenticeships available. I believe they can accomplish this as well as reach a younger crowd if they stay dedicated to a plan and show commitment on their end of it.

  1. I agree, this is a whole new generation of technology and social media, organizations must adapt and change with the times

  2. It would be interesting to me to see if CMMA took technology to another level and showed some of the work that is happening within the companies. Although there are safety precautions, if there were a designated person per company to take pictures and show some of the "cool" things that happen in manufacturing and show processes of how things work, then maybe they would have a shot at reaching that generation through technology.
