A contiguous advanced energy career pipeline begins with exposing K-12 students and job seekers to the careers available in our industry. This exposure might occur through teacher-led career exploration curricula, industry speakers, project tours, career fairs, or media outreach. Once an individual expresses interest in a career, they should be easily connected to training programs and pathways, whether in higher education, trade schools, community colleges, or intermediary credential programs. These pathways should connect or overlap with early job experiences such as apprenticeships, internships, or fellowships. The final stage of a contiguous green jobs pipeline includes ongoing career progression through mentorship, career coaching, professional development, re-skilling, and entrepreneurship. Collaborations among a wide range of organizations are critical to connecting each of these stages, ensuring fluid movement through the pipeline.
