Training & Accreditation
Workforce + Sustainability
To meet current and future demand, the construction industry workforce will need to be more diverse, skilled, and younger than ever before. Sustainable practices create greater interest among those looking to enter the industry, and those who gain green building knowledge and a green credential are more attractive and valuable to future employers.
Earth Advantage (with support from Energy Trust of Oregon) works with community-based partners to deliver customized training and professional accreditations to prepare tradespersons for a career in green building.
