As an Acumen employee, you will receive the training you need to enhance your skillsets and excel in your work. Tenets of Acumen’s Workforce Development Program include:

  • Recruit and train a new generation of workers to be deployed in roles that support systems engineering, program/project management and project controls.
    • Invite graduates of local science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (STEAM) programs to learn about employment opportunities at Acumen.
    • Coordinate with local universities to reach computer science, civil, electrical and mechanical engineering students.
    • Support and expand internships with local transit agencies.
  • Meet with employees to customize a career-development plan with specific goals.
  • Partner with skill- and career-development initiatives that target and benefit minority and women candidates such as My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, East Oakland Youth Development Center (EOYDC) and Cypress Mandela Training Center.
