The Puget Sound Consortium for Manufacturing Excellence (CME) is a regional education-industry partnership that is improving the connection between manufacturing technology education, student career goals, and private sector demand. The CME is working with its education partners to modularize manufacturing technology curriculum based on existing, regionally focused industry skill standards. Instruction is seamlessly combined for customization of instruction to students and incumbent workers, and leads to a degree. CME partner colleges and tech-prep programs are using CME modules in their manufacturing and engineering programs. Professional development activities are providing workshops for faculty on the design and use of the modularized curriculum system. The CME is also assisting high schools and colleges in promoting manufacturing career opportunities to students. Through its curriculum and professional development services, the CME is:-- adapting and organizing already-developed instructional modules to form a manufacturing technology curriculum that is responsive to regional industry skill requirements;-- developing a Teaching Factory model that develops skills by having students apply classroom instruction to real problems in a work-like setting;-- training over 30 high school instructors, college faculty, and other instructors on how to utilize the modular curriculum system; and -- improving curriculum articulation between high schools, community and technical colleges, and 4-year colleges and universities.The long-term impact of the CME will be more and better skilled manufacturing technology graduates, improved technology instruction, articulation of the curriculum and enhanced coordination among secondary and post-secondary institutions.

普吉特海湾卓越制造联盟（CME）是一个区域教育-工业合作伙伴关系，旨在改善制造技术教育，学生职业目标和私营部门需求之间的联系。CME正与其教育合作伙伴合作，根据现有的、以区域为重点的行业技能标准，将制造技术课程模块化。教学无缝结合，为学生和在职工人定制教学，并获得学位。CME合作院校和技术预科项目正在他们的制造和工程项目中使用CME模块。专业发展活动为教员提供了设计和使用模块化课程系统的讲习班。CME还协助高中和大学为学生提供制造业就业机会。通过其课程和专业发展服务，CME是——调整和组织已经开发的教学模块，形成一个制造技术课程，是响应区域行业技能要求；——建立一个教学工厂模式，让学生在类似工作的环境中将课堂教学应用于实际问题，从而培养技能；——培训30多名高中教师、大学教师和其他教师如何使用模块化课程体系；改善高中、社区和技术学院以及四年制学院和大学之间的课程衔接。继续教育的长期影响将是培养更多和更好的熟练制造技术毕业生，改善技术指导，衔接课程，加强中学和大专院校之间的协调。
