What is a "Green" Career and how do you find your green career pathway?
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 Eley, 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!
