Philosophy & Objectives

The Illinois Manufacturing Foundation (IMF) creates and operates - in collaboration with employers - education and training activities that develop in individuals the understanding, skills and attitudes needed for successful career employment.

IMF emphasizes fulfillment of the needs of both the employer and the individual student.

This emphasis is demonstrated in a variety of ways:

* Sustained relationships with employers to assure that training is current and   appropriate to job requirements;
  
* Assistance in job placements;

* Assistance to eligible students in locating financial aid to cover the cost of their education;
  
* Training that develops the necessary skills, attitudes & knowledge for more than entry-level employment;
  
* Completion of training in less than a year;
  
* Assistance to students who have academic, personal or financial problems;
  
* Assuring that each student is treated as an individual.

IMF's efforts are channeled toward providing the training,assistance,and supportive services needed to prepare students to meet the employer's need for technically skilled employees in jobs that are both rewarding and the basis for a successful career. IMF encourages its students to succeed in their life ambitions through improvement in basic academic skills, improvement in technical skills, employment,and career advancement. The educational philosophy  developed over the past thirty years results in basic objectives which are to improve motivation, to develop sound work habits & attitudes, and to provide the technical skills and knowledge required to begin successful careers in the occupational field selected. IMF's success depends on graduates reaching these goals and employers meeting their company needs through employment of successful graduates.
