Clean economy jobs are on the rise. Today’s students have the opportunity to pursue jobs that will advance sustainability, equity, technology and resilience. Today’s teachers are eager to engage students in experiences that will equip them for the first steps of their career journeys. If you’re a high school instructor of architecture, engineering, energy, construction, building trades, environmental science or other STEM fields, you’re likely already including information about green jobs in your coursework.
Earlier this year, USGBC and its partners hosted two successful offerings of a LEED Green Associate exam prep course for teachers, a professional development experience that equips these teachers to designate themselves as leaders in green building knowledge and helps them to prepare their students for a green building career. USGBC and our partners are excited to be able to offer this exam prep training two more times in 2023!
