Lifelong Learning for USW Members
“Experience has shown that worker growth and development are stunted when programs are mandated from above, but flourish in an atmosphere of voluntary participation in self-designed and self-directed training and education.” USW/Company Contract Language
National Scope
Institute for Career Development is a national joint labor-management eduation program of the United Steelworkers and participating companies where USW members work.
Local Focus
Each Career Development program is locally governed by a committee composed of members of the Local Union and representatives of the participating company.
Individualized Learning
Participants design and develop their own training and education plan according to their personal goals, choosing courses and programs to meet their individual learning objectives.
News from the Field
Steelworker ... and college graduate
Kewan McCully can’t help but smile. It’s hard not to these days.
The USW Local 1014 member and furnace assistant in the QBOP has a lot to be happy about: his family, his job, and most recently, his college degree.
“I couldn’t have done it without funds from the ICD program,” McCully said. “The funds allowed me to finish college and earn my bachelor’s degree in Organizational Management.”

“When (Ron) got up and spoke, he said of all the awards and honors he’s received, this one meant more than anything,” Juarez recalled.
