Full Spectrum Academy
From apprenticeship to leadership: we're building the next generation of engineering talent.
The role of the Full Spectrum Academy is to nurture our workforce on their career journey from apprenticeship to leadership. In addition to leveraging the world-class training available from the wider CBRE business, the Full Spectrum Academy has developed a comprehensive technical training program, across all categories of laboratory equipment. In addition to leveraging our global network of subject matter experts, we have a proven track record of partnering with industry-leading manufacturers to train our workforce on how to ensure our mutual clients get the most out of their laboratory equipment.
We have two centers of excellence in the US–one on the West Coast and one on the East Coast–that enable us to deliver in-depth hands on training to our engineers in an environment where they have no need to worry about damaging a customers system. Our certified Academy Faculty team consists of in-house subject matter experts with extensive industry and prior manufacturer experience.

The Full Spectrum Academy approach:
- Instructor-Led / Virtual Instructor-Led
Instructor-led training may consist of one-on-one, small-group or large-group formats. We can deliver training in person or through an online platform such as MS Teams or Zoom and include support materials such as leader's guides, participant guides and handouts. - Self-Paced Learning
Self-paced learning is housed in TalentCoach which is our system of record. Self-paced learning is flexible and interactive. - Mixed Reality and Other Technologies
The Full Spectrum Academy team partners with CBRE’s Extended Reality Solutions team to push the boundaries of training in the 21st century. This collaboration ranges from remote skills verification to interactive troubleshooting guides.
