Green technology jobs include careers in urban and regional planning, conservation, information technology, architecture and construction, solar power, and other renewable energy technologies. You can opt for a more vocational course or pursue a degree in a green technology subject.
You can find green technology education through schools and colleges. Examples include "Green Technician" apprenticeships run by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and the National Electrical Contractors Association of Central Indiana. Private companies may also offer training. You may qualify for government help with training costs.
It's important to make sure that you get training through a reputable provider, and that your certificate will be recognized. Organizations such as the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) can help with this.
