| Abstract | The skilled craft workforce possesses the in-demand, highly specialized skills that are necessary to maintain and improve campus. However, campus, the heart of many colleges and universities, may be in trouble: The higher ed skilled craft workforce is aging, and there are not enough younger workers to take the place of older employees as they retire. In this brief, we begin with a focus on pay in the skilled craft workforce. Skilled craft positions are notable because they are well-paid relative to positions that require similar levels of education. Skilled craft positions can provide financial stability to individuals who do not have the opportunity or desire to go beyond an associate's degree. We next examine the aging of the skilled craft workforce and discuss the skilled craft workforce's strengths and opportunities for growth in the areas of diversity and equity. We close by recommending next steps for colleges and universities. Taken together, we argue that aging in the higher ed skilled craft workforce provides a unique opportunity to work toward greater diversity and equity in this area, particularly as many colleges and universities are in a time of unprecedented change.
