On the Job Training

Learning on the job is a great way to advance your career. We don’t believe in ad hoc systems that make education an afterthought. We offer regular training and dedicate time for staff to attend classes and information sessions. “We continually work to promote formal learning for our staff,” explains Cathy Farmer, Goodwin House Alexandria Director of Clinical Services.

From CPR and dementia training to annual education days, Goodwin Living offers a wide range of classes and special training to help each employee develop a career path and have opportunities for advancement. You can pursue new interests, hone skills and get experience under the formal umbrella of our on-site training programs.

Tuition Assistance

Want to go back to school to follow your career dreams? College is expensive, but we can help. Since 2017, we have paid more than $825,000 in tuition assistance for our team members. And many of the employees who received this help also earned promotions at Goodwin Living, in part because of their education.

Tuition assistance is not limited to full-time employees, certain jobs or departments. Join us, meet the eligibility requirements, dream and enroll. We will help you get there.

Evolving Leaders Program

Leadership is a quality we believe should be developed throughout our organization. Whether you are a natural leader with experience or just starting out with limited leadership skills, you might be surprised by how much you can grow by learning to lead. Goodwin Living needs leaders, and we invest in creating them.

Our Evolving Leaders Program fosters the growth of a dozen leaders every other year. Many team members have graduated from the Evolving Leaders Program to date, with the vast majority being promoted to new opportunities or growth within their current role.
