Community College and Employer Partnerships: Real Jobs in the Clean Economy
Posted on February 06, 2012 by Margaret Lamb

In light of President Obama's recent promotion of innovative community college and employer partnerships, learn how a college and Fortune 500 companies and suppliers in the building automation and controls industry have come together to develop career pathways and design curriculum for workers learning how to manipulate new energy efficient technology.

The event is aimed at community college and workforce system administrators and personnel seeking to more strongly engage employers in green industry sectors. The model developed here in Georgia has led to a 98% placement rate for students and the presenters will be discussing how these strategies can be applied on other campuses.
