What You Need |
 | Certain types of cleaners may need a high school diploma. |
| To be a light and specialized cleaner, you do not need any formal education. You usually receive on-the-job training and may need experience in specialized cleaning activities. For some employers, you may need certification for housekeeping room attendants or similar certification. |
| To be a janitor, caretaker or building superintendent, you may need previous cleaning/maintenance experience. To be a building superintendent, you may need a journeyman/woman certificate in one of more of the trades or a building operator certificate. |
| With additional training/experience, you may move up the ranks to become a supervisor. |
| Most recent entrants have a community college diploma, and almost 3 in 10 have a trade/vocational certificate. |
