Program details

What Meta has described so far

LevelUp is framed around fiber technician skills for data center and construction environments. The official CBRE application is the place to confirm eligibility, cohort availability, location details, and application status.

The pathway is described as free and four weeks long. It is positioned for people without prior experience, which makes it relevant for early-career workers, career changers, and trades-adjacent candidates trying to get into fiber or data center infrastructure.

Who it fits

A possible fit if you want a short fiber/data center starter path

You want an entry-level route into fiber, low-voltage cabling, or data center construction support work.
You can commit to a short four-week training pathway if selected by the official program.
You want hands-on technician exposure before deciding whether to pursue BICSI, FOA, electrical, or network credentials.
You understand the pathway may create opportunities, but it is not a guaranteed job placement program.

After training

What may happen after LevelUp

Meta says graduates may have an opportunity to work at Meta construction sites in the United States through its contractor network. That language matters: the program may open a door, but it should not be read as guaranteed placement, guaranteed employment, or guaranteed work at a Meta site.
