“…As evident in its dedication to training, its ethos appears very much team-orientated with an emphasis on life-long learning with heavy investment in its staff. This canny eye to the future may explain how two young greenhorns from vastly different backgrounds, who began their Langston careers as interns, eventually went on to head up the company…”

Career Development and Progression
Langston Construction has prioritized employee learning and development as part of the overall business model. We have been intentional about the development of several programs to empower individual professional development and technical skill advancements.
Our Craft Development Program (CDP) is led by a committee comprised of integrated representatives of front-line field craft professionals, project superintendents, project managers and company executives. The CDP focuses on strengthening peer-to-peer accountability, standardized evaluation, celebration of learning growth milestones and creating a culture of innovation and collaboration. Specific learning objectives are developed to support advancements in skill levels, certification opportunities, and leadership enhancement. Langston not only supports employees’ initiative for obtaining professional certifications by openly recognizing achievements, but employees are encouraged financially to broaden their knowledge base and fine-tune their technical and professional skills.
Our Developmental Rotational Program (DRP) is an internal extensive three-year program designed to prepare our next generation of Langston leaders by providing focused and practical experience in the four main Construction Management roles: Superintendent, Project Management, Safety, and Preconstruction/Estimating. Through a strategy of role rotation, participants have an assigned mentor that ensures they are meeting set learning objectives through encouragement and guidance.
