My first year in the program has provided me with opportunities to gain experience on the shop floor while contributing to projects that align with the company’s mission. One of the biggest benefits of the program is the chance to explore different roles over the next two years.
Ciarán O'Sullivan
First Year MLDP
During my last year of college, I wanted to expand my horizons. The program supported my pursuit and attainment of this goal in three short years. I can attribute my foundation in strategic decision making and conscious leadership to the exposure I received as a member of this highly driven team.

Third Year MLDP
The MLDP has given me a breadth of knowledge early in my career - from shop floor experience in my first year to accelerated capital project startup experience in my second year. Beyond my rotations, I've also had networking and stretch opportunities to accelerate my development.
Hannah Kohl
Second Year MLDP
When joining the MLDP, I expected a great start to a career; what I wasn't expecting was to get all that AND a group of amazing people as a part of my cohort (from around the world!), mentors who care about your growth (both professional and personal), and a work culture that encourages change.
Kevin Chen
Second Year MLDP
The MLDP has allowed me to rapidly develop throughout different areas of the business. I was able to sharpen technical skills within manufacturing and a new facility startup before rotating through supply chain to develop new strengths in business acumen and strategic thinking.
