Workforce Development

At St. Joseph’s Health, we believe that investing in people is the foundation of exceptional care. Our Workforce Development initiative empowers individuals at every stage of their career journey—whether you’re just beginning in healthcare, looking to advance your skills, or ready to explore new professional opportunities within our system.

Through education, mentorship, and hands-on experience, we help colleagues and community members grow personally and professionally while strengthening the healthcare workforce that serves Central New York.

This program has been made possible thanks to a grant from the Mother Cabrini Foundation.

Opportunities to Learn and Grow

Workforce Development supports a wide range of pathways in healthcare, including:

• Career exploration and entry programs for those new to the field
• Skill-building and certification opportunities to help advance existing careers
• Educational partnerships and tuition assistance that make continued learning accessible
• Mentorship and guidance for colleagues looking to take the next step

Outside In, Inside Up

Our signature Outside In, Inside Up initiative focuses on removing barriers to employment and advancement in healthcare. The program helps community members discover meaningful careers at St. Joseph’s Health while supporting current colleagues in their growth toward leadership and specialized roles.
