May 8th<\/sup>, 2024 \u2013 Chicago IL, Fairfax VA, Derry, NH, Novi MI – NIMS is excited to announce a major development in industry\u2013recognized standards and credentials with the release of the NIMS Industrial Robotics Discipline<\/strong>!<\/p>\n NIMS<\/a> has partnered with Universal Robotics<\/a>, a leading robotics vendor, and Intelitek<\/a>,<\/strong> an industry education provider who work with Yaskawa robotics to jointly develop the standards. Both companies can deliver the training and tools to complete the NIMS Robotics Operator credential and will continue to work with NIMS on additional credentials for the robotics series.<\/p>\n The NIMS approach to developing industry standards and ensuring alignment is grounded in its dynamic duty-based framework, where each duty is an individual standard that can be updated independently from any other standards.<\/p>\n NIMS duties are defined by \u201cstatements of responsibility\u201d, and each responsibility houses a list of relevant task-based standards. These duties define what industry professionals can agree on and the tasks are selected based on company specific workplace activities. This link between responsibilities and tasks empowers you to choose the right mix of tasks for a job while ensuring comprehensiveness.<\/p>\n \u201cMost robotics vendors offer certifications, but these are vendor specific. With NIMS credentials, candidates earn credentials recognized by the entire industry and schools can use any equipment they choose. NIMS credentials apply to any vendor because it focuses on the most important aspects of mastering disciplines within manufacturing, best practices and critical thinking.\u201d said Montez King, Executive Director of NIMS.<\/p>\n \u201cCredentials from NIMS have the unique characteristic of being driven by industry needs and not by any specific vendor\u201d said Corey Adams from Universal Robotics.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are fully supportive of this initiative,\u201d said Tony Oran, CEO of Intelitek. \u201cWe are aligned to NIMS Industrial Technology Maintenance as well as NIMS Industry 4.0 Credentials and this is a huge addition to the portfolio.\u201d<\/p>\n To view or survey NIMS duty-based standards visit our Interactive Standards Viewer<\/a> (ISV). Watch the video on the Welcome page to learn more about dynamic standards.<\/p>\n NIMS Performance Measures (PMs) include task-based standards. To view PMs and learn more about the PM evaluation software, visit http:\/\/www.myststech.org<\/a> and watch the Smart Training Solutions (STS) video for Educators. NIMS provides this evaluation software to educators at no cost.<\/p>\n Together, NIMS, UR, and Intelitek are revitalizing what credentialing can be!<\/p>\n About NIMS<\/strong><\/p>\n NIMS is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that was formed in 1995 to develop and maintain a globally competitive American workforce.
