As part of its mission, Clemson University is “committed to the personal growth of the individual and promotes an environment of good decision making, healthy and ethical lifestyles, and tolerance and respect for others.” To that end, the Workforce Development program is about providing the resources and support necessary for University Facilities staff to maximize their potential through an ongoing process of education and empowerment. This allows our staff the opportunity for personal and professional growth while also providing the University with a highly skilled workforce. We work closely with employees and supervisors to identify educational needs and develop internal training programs and partner with other resources to meet those needs.
Areas of Focus
Our program assists with growth in the following areas: Career Progression, Internal Internships, Skilled Trade Apprenticeships, Leadership Development, Continuing Education, and Licenses and Certifications.
Leadership Development
The Facilities Leadership Development Program (FLDP) helps prepare individuals for leadership roles within facilities. FLDP provides a framework to support the personal and professional growth of Clemson University staff aspiring to become future leaders.
