Practical Tools for Expanding Access to Climate Jobs and Apprenticeships

This session shares two tools the Inclusive Economy Lab (IEL) developed to promote access to good jobs and economic mobility. First, the team will distribute a zine highlighting the lessons learned from clean energy workforce programs that prioritize economic opportunity for communities confronting long-term disinvestment and environmental degradation. Next, IEL will present the “Start Your Journey” dashboard, a practical resource job seekers and career coaches can use to view program-level enrollment, completion, and wage data for all US DOL Registered Apprenticeship Programs. The presentation and discussion will highlight ways to use these resources to advance workforce equity.
