View a free course on how members of the green building community can help bring more professionals into the fold.

Each month in 2024, USGBC will share a handpicked education course or two about a specific aspect of green building that will be free for that month only. For the month of November, take advantage of a free course on how we can support our community in becoming green professionals.

Partnering to Build a Green Workforce

Intermediate level | 1 CE credit | USGBC | Webinar format

This course is part of the USGBC Live 2022: Boston Forum. The green building and clean tech sectors are growing rapidly, and so is the need for a 21st century skilled workforce-one that is sustainability-literate, resilient and representative of all sectors of society. Together on one panel, a diverse group of local experts will speak to the current skills gaps in the green building sector, how schools are engaging youth to be prepared for these careers in sustainability and clean energy, and how the green building sector must set intentional goals around supporting female students and students of diverse backgrounds to build a robust pipeline of passionate employees.
