Through in-house training, webinars, tuition reimbursement and retreats, Syska provides a diverse learning environment that encourages each employee to continually raise the bar. Syska has created resources available to our team members that differentiate us from other employers. Engineer Development Training Program To accelerate recent college graduates’ careers, all entry-level engineering hires participate in Syska’s one-year Engineer Development Training (EDT) Program. This time honored program is a trademark of our commitment to the development and education of young engineers through cross-training in mechanical, electrical, plumbing, energy modeling, LEED, sustainability and business practices – all items that make well-rounded engineers. Team members regularly visit job sites to experience projects underway, while being mentored by more senior engineers.

SYSKA’S SWE Champions Program One of SHAPE’s 2020 objectives, Recruiting for Diversity, is designed to attract and retain our pipeline of female applicants and population of female employees. The first step of this initiative involves collaboration with the Society of Women Engineers (SWE). SWE is the world’s largest advocate and catalyst for change for women in engineering and technology. Its core values — integrity, inclusive environment, mutual support, professional excellence, and trust — echo our own. We have launched this effort by identifying “SWE champions” in each Syska office. These volunteers join SWE, attend local and national events, and familiarize members with Syska. We also sponsor chapter scholarships for students. SHAPE, in alignment with Syska’s commitment, will support and provide direction to our SWE champions as we continue to rollout the program. Together, we can enrich Syska’s talent base and internal strengths, while serving as a model for the industry at large.
