The company collaborates with community colleges, workforce development organizations, government partners, and educational institutions to develop registered apprenticeship programs that meet industry needs and expand community opportunities.
These partnerships ensure training is relevant, accessible, and scalable.
On April 30, Micron launched a joint apprenticeship program with New York, providing hands-on pathways for aspiring technicians to gain in-demand skills and pursue careers in advanced manufacturing.

Also in 2024, Micron announced plans to create over 67,000 new U.S. jobs in the next two decades, focusing on advancing domestic memory manufacturing.
The company continues to invest in STEM education from K-12 through advanced degrees and supports HBCU Engineering Schools through partnerships and participation in the BEYA STEM Conference.
These efforts aim to broaden access to STEM careers and strengthen the semiconductor workforce.
At the 2023 BEYA STEM Conference, a senior program manager for veteran outreach at Micron participated in seminars addressing infrastructure challenges, risk management, and strategies for climate change, equity, and resilience.
