Manager in Training (MIT) Program

The Manager in Training (MIT) is designed to prepare the Team Member for a future leadership position in one of our home building facilities.

Working hands-on and partnering with other internal team members, MITs will be exposed to a multitude of skills and tribal knowledge.

Each program path provides broad training and experience within a Home Building Facility.
