Highly skilled energy professionals are the key to achieving clean energy goals.
A clean energy future that integrates renewables, energy efficiency, and grid modernization is supported by government policy, private investment, and the public. As the energy industry grows, the workforce must grow also.
But energy employers struggle to find workers with the skills and experience they require now and for the future. Employers’ capacity to provide education and training is limited, and other industry and labor market trends – such as predicted retirements – pose formidable staffing, economic, and energy security challenges.
Our workforce development specialists craft effective strategies to address workforce concerns. Our team works with:
- Industry to define current and anticipated workforce needs
- Education to develop and implement training programs that address workforce needs
- Policymakers to help shape the economic environment
Our research and analysis are customized to:
- Enhance our clients’ understanding of workforce challenges
