Amazing things happen when our members host or participate in an NFPA Fluid Power Action Challenge event. Middle and high school students learn about fluid power through this hands-on design and build competition. Teams leverage their STEM education and key life skills—problem-solving, teamwork, time management, communication, and project management—to solve an engineering problem.
Members, there is still time to host your own Fluid Power Action Challenge (FPAC) this academic year, or you can volunteer at one of the events already scheduled. Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) is seeking volunteers for their upcoming challenge.
