Do you want a “green job” in an industry that promotes environmental sustainability, and can offer you job stability, choice, and competitive pay (estimated starting wage of $14/hr, up to $28+/hr with experience)? Through the GreenNet training—which leads to the Building Analyst Certification—you will become qualified to work (and get help in finding a job) in the green industry in roles such as administration, analysis or construction.
The next session starts in June of this free 4-week certification, which includes: • Pre-training covering an overview of the green field, terminology and developing basic skills • Nationally recognized certification course and hands-on activities with Building Performance Institute instructors • Digital Literacy & National Work Readiness Certifications, which look great on resumes • Individualized job and college counseling as well as workshops and mentoring • Paid internship opportunities and job placement services available • Monetary incentives ($100 at multiple points) offered for completing stages of the program
