Community College of Philadelphia Municipal Employment Program Creates Bridge to Public Service Careers
Posted by Community College of Philadelphia on February 11, 2025
Community College of Philadelphia (CCP) offers short-term training pathways for students pursuing careers in health care, manufacturing and skilled trades, helping students quickly prepare for the workforce while providing organizations with skilled and qualified candidates in essential areas. CCP recently expanded its training initiatives by launching the City College for Municipal Employment (CCME) program, in partnership with the Mayor’s Office, building a skilled pipeline to open positions and advancement within the city’s offices.
Karen Abney was part of the first cohort of students to complete the Office Administration CCME program. She finished in December 2024 and is now applying to executive administration positions in the City of Philadelphia government offices and with the city’s Hearing Officer program.
