Abigail Nguyen at her alma mater, University of California, Berkeley, where she majored in chemical engineering, on Aug. 12, 2024. Abigail is seeking a job in the semiconductor industry and recently attended SEMICON West where she gained valuable insight and guidance on how to secure a job in a highly competitive field.
“It changed my perception of the industry and what it takes to be successful in the industry,” Nguyen said. “There are just so many things you can do, and if you’re confident and learn and try new things, then it’s the place for you.” She’s now applying for industry jobs as a process engineer. The SEMI Foundation leads workforce development programs and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives with more than 3,000 semiconductor companies globally. It currently has several grants for workforce development efforts in California, supporting customized trainings, registered apprenticeships, and other “earn and learn” models.
A grant for $4.6 million over two years through the state-funded High Road Training Partnerships initiative will support even more custom training. The SEMI Foundation is working with companies such as Applied Materials and Western Digital to understand the technical and soft skills workers need to succeed in entering the industry, along with the upskilling needed to keep moving up in their careers.
