Career Progression

Career Progression Defined

• Career progression planning has a number of names, e.g., succession planning; management development; career ladders, etc. Each has unique elements, but all have the same core focus. In simple terms, career progression is an important element of a company’s human resources strategy for achieving its future growth and success.

Career Progression at UNCG

• The CPP provides a path for Building Environmental Technicians to enhance skill and competency levels and meet other requirements to increase work efficiencies. The intent of the CCP is that, upon successful completion of the requirements defined for each progression step, the employee will receive a salary increase to the salary at the next progression step within their career band competency level and be assigned greater responsibility.

Career Progression

• UNCG began its employee progression program in 2015.

• The program is based on in-competency working title progression.

APPA FMEP Evaluation

• The current training process at UNCG seems to be underserved. The designated trainer is splitting his time with another critical function. A strong training program, delivered by a knowledgeable and enthusiastic professional, can serve to enhance morale while developing a skilled and engaged workforce. All workers should have a training contact at least once monthly, if only to reinforce standards and process.
