Project description
Lifting Futures ( liftingfutures.org) is the GE Aerospace Foundation’s flagship workforce skills program, designed to help train the advanced manufacturing workforce needed across the aviation and aerospace industries. The $30M workforce program will train 10,000 workers by 2030 to help close the manufacturing skills gap.
GE Aerospace Foundation worked closely with FHI 360’s team of education and workforce experts to design and tailor the program to specific communities’ needs.

Lifting Futures has launched in the U.S. in Greater Cincinnati/Dayton, Ohio; Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas; Auburn/Montgomery, AL, and internationally in Kuala Lumpur/Selangor, Malaysia, and Wroclaw, Poland. It will identify another 5-7 cities by the end of 2026. In these cities, Lifting Futures will award, manage, and support grants to achieve program goals.
The Technical Advisor will provide expertise relating to the development of workforce skills across all project activities and report to the Project Director.
