| Title | Montana Department of Transportation Career Development |
| ShortDescription | The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) encourages employees to identify strengths and the areas where they would like training or mentoring. Employees have the opportunity to create their own career plan and are given the training, tools, and encouragement they need to realize their goals. |
| LongDescription | To help employees advance in their careers, MDT employs a career ladder designed to provide advancement opportunities and training and education that gives employees the added knowledge they need to advance in their professions or to qualify for management positions.
A career ladder is a plan for employee advancement generally based on increased responsibility and more complex job duties. The ladder identifies the type of work performed at each level and the requirements to be met to move to the next level. The agency currently offers career ladders in engineering, contract plans, information services, maintenance, motor carrier services, and safety and health.
MDT’s in-house training covers a wide range of job-related subjects from basic software training to industry-specific trends and innovations. The agency also offers mentoring programs at various levels within the organization (designed to address the impending wave of management staff retirement), and encouragement for professional engineers and professional land surveyors to maintain their respective licenses by obtaining appropriate professional development hours during the renewal cycle.
