Manufacturing Development Program
 
The Manufacturing Development Program (MDP), up to two years in length, introduces you as a program participant to all areas of a cement plant so that you can develop into a capable leader. When the program is completed, you will begin working at one of Ash Grove's plants in a position that best matches your talents and the company's current needs.
The Ash Grove Difference
  • You will be directed by a training coordinator.
  • You will be given the opportunity for placement in a plant and movement between locations upon successful completion of the program.
  • Your progress will be reviewed.

I contributed and attained hands-on experience with the maintenance department while assisting to improve the efficiency of the overall manufacturing process. Ash Grove has given me the tools and professional development I need to be successful as an engineer and as a future leader in this industry."
