Green Economy

Green Economy I-Choose:

 

What's it like?

  • This is a new sector, but one which uses 'old' skills (e.g. plumbing, engineering) in new ways.
  • The sector will generate a range of jobs, some practical and outdoors, others developing technologies or monitoring emissions.

 

What are the prospects?

  • This is an expanding sector, but we can't yet predict what kinds and numbers of jobs will be created, but we do know

what types of skills will be in demand.

 

How do I get into the industry?

  • College:  Science, engineering or technology based courses.
  • Apprenticeship:  Gaining skills that can be used in the sector, e.g. electrician, plumber, engineer.
  • Employment without training:  Limited opportunities in a high tech sector, but there are some.
  • Diplomas:  Diplomas are new qualifications where the learning is based around an employment sector but combined

with academic study
