Johnson Controls announced $3 million in grants to 30 U.S. community colleges for the 2026-27 academic year through its Community College Partnership Program. The investment supports efforts to expand access to technical education, strengthen workforce development programs and help students pursue careers in high-demand fields.
Since launching CCPP in 2021, Johnson Controls has invested $15 million in community colleges and technical schools, partnering with 38 institutions nationwide to support more than 5,800 students pursue educational and career opportunities. The program has celebrated more than 2,300 graduates and helped connect talent with in-demand skilled trades careers, while thousands of additional students continue progressing through academic programs and gaining the skills needed to enter the workforce in the years ahead.
The CCPP helps students pursue careers in HVAC, fire protection, security and digital technologies through a combination of financial support, industry expertise, mentoring and hands-on learning experiences. Beyond supporting educational programs, funding can help address barriers that often stand between students and graduation, enabling institutions to respond to learners’ real-world needs like emergency transportation or childcare needs, and create more accessible pathways to career success. Johnson Controls employees provide mentorship, career guidance and exposure to real-world job opportunities, helping students develop both technical and professional skills.
