\nGovernor Andy Beshear announced over $15.2 million in state support for companies and consortiums to train more than 15,500 workers.<\/p>\n
The approval includes a $10 million grant to support the training and development of 5,000 employees at BlueOval SK Battery Park in Glendale.<\/p>\n
Governor Beshear said this funding will help train workers at BlueOval SK Battery Park in Glendale and roughly 20 other operations statewide, helping prepare thousands of Kentuckians to make an impact in their communities, while also better supporting their families through skilled, good-paying jobs. <\/p>\n
The funding will support employee training that includes industrial maintenance, lean, safety, process improvement, systems thinking, communication, worker characteristics, vision systems, and culture roles.<\/p>\n
With the emergence of EV battery production in the United States, proper training for all BlueOval SK employees to understand the battery technology and manufacturing process is necessary.<\/p>\n
BlueOval SK remains committed to both plants at BlueOval SK Battery Park, and construction is on schedule. The first plant is scheduled to begin production in 2025.
