Workforce Development

Our Workforce Development Commitment

The Workforce Development Team at CAM brings together over 70 years of collective experience from diverse backgrounds. Our team is dedicated to creating, scaling, and supporting programs that meet the specific needs of each site and workforce in today’s 21st-century economy. Across the US and Canada, our Workforce Development (WFD) Team actively participates in hiring events, community engagements, speaking opportunities, and national conferences. These efforts help to elevate CAM’s profile while educating local communities on the vast career options CAM offers.

We take pride in supporting CAM’s overall mission and vision, while also meeting each individual employee where they are in their professional journey. Our commitment spans all experience levels and crafts, ensuring robust support for all employees across the US and Canada.

Programs and Training Initiatives

Our WFD team supports and provides NCCER training at no cost to employees, with options for self-study or instructor-led courses. As new NCCER trainings become available, they are seamlessly integrated to support our workforce.

For young talent, CAM offers Work-Based Learning opportunities for high school students (18+), allowing them to earn while they learn. This program, offered in partnership with high schools across the US, provides valuable on-the-job training tailored to students’ schedules.

Additionally, our team leads Department of Labor Registered Apprenticeship programs nationwide, constantly improving and introducing new crafts each year. Unique initiatives, like the employer-supported childcare center at our Kingsport, TN site, address specific needs and alleviate barriers for employees.

Customized training tailored to each site is another key focus, ensuring we meet both client demands and the needs of our diverse workforce. Our Leadership Essentials course and Site Manager Training programs provide pathways for continuous development, enabling career growth and upward mobility for employees seeking advancement.
