Clean Energy Career Pathways: Innovative Workforce Development Strategies and Partnerships
Friday December 13, 2024 3:00pm - 3:50pm EST
Massachusetts
The Clean Energy Career Pathways panel will be hosted by the Clean Energy Partnership (CEP) within the Governor’s Energy Office. Since 2022, the CEP has invested $4.9 million in clean energy workforce development initiatives across the state. The panel will begin with a presentation on the growing clean energy economy, the range of career opportunities and skills required, and a high- level overview of statewide clean energy workforce development initiatives.  Following the presentation, the CEP Program Manager will lead a panel of 2-4 Clean Energy Partnership grantees who can speak to their innovative workforce development programs. Examples would include successful pre-apprenticeship, short term training and registered apprenticeships engaging diverse adult populations, youth and rural communities in clean energy career pathways and employment with clean energy businesses. Learning objectives: Greater understanding of career pathways in clean energy and innovative strategies and partnerships to support diverse learners, youth and rural communities.
