Center for Park Management: What We Do
We help the people of the Park Service perform their best.
Now more than ever, the Park Service needs effective, well-trained, engaged staff who are able to overcome the many internal and external challenges threatening the protection of our national parks. From withstanding budget cuts to remaining relevant to a constantly evolving public – the challenges have never been tougher for the NPS.
Working collaboratively with Service leaders and managers, we are helping the NPS overcome these challenges by becoming an even more effective and resilient organization. To reach this goal, we are building a cadre of dynamic leaders, developing innovative systems and tools, diversifying the workforce and helping the NPS become more relevant to all Americans.
