DeWys University On the Job Training

DeWys University is our own program developed to sustain our business through on the job training. As a manufacturer in Michigan, we need to create the talent required to keep up with our growth.

The DeWys University curriculum is based on both theory and practice. Not only do students get to understand DeWys Manufacturing, they also get on the job training with a certified trainer for the area in which they have applied. It’s like a manufacturing trade school.

Hands on training lasts approximately 6 weeks, then the student gets incorporated into a production team where he or she will continue to be observed for another 6 weeks. This approach to manufacturing jobs training allows students to fully understand what it takes to be a successful team member at DeWys Manufacturing.

Words from Laura Preuss, Dean of DeWys University

“DeWys University allows the company to approach finding candidates to fill positions differently than ever before. We now have the opportunity to find the right person and train him/her to be the right fit for a position. The University also allows us to stay true to the family values, which includes time for the “students” to fully understand the DeWys policies, procedures and core values. The ultimate goal of the university is to “graduate” people into full functioning DeWys Team Members who are excited about their future with our company.”
