What is a "Green" Career and how do you actually get started on a green career path?
North Carolina's green economy is growing quickly, and Piedmont Environmental Alliance is helping our community connect with local mentors who can help guide them toward a fulfilling career in the green economy. All you have to do to get started is reach out to PEA's Green Jobs Program Manager, Will Ely, at will@peanc.org. You can request to be connected to a specific mentor, or we can connect you with one that would be a good fit for your goals. Think you might be interested in serving as a mentor? Email Will about offering your time and advice to green careeer seekers!
