The Energy Consortium Concept

The Energy, Industry and Construction Consortium concept

was created on August 28, 2007 during a Skilled Labor

Summit in Biloxi, MS, as a partnership among: – Electric and natural gas utilities – Nuclear and industrial construction – Utility associations – Education – State offices – Department of Labor – Workforce investment and other affiliated or support

organizations concerned with the emerging workforce planning issues affecting utilities

The Center for Energy Workforce Development (CEWD)

How do we build a diverse, qualified pool of workers who have the right knowledge and skills to enter critical energy-industry positions

at the right time?

Get Into Energy Career Pathways (GIECP):Students and Potential Applicants – targeted career awareness campaigns, career advising and guidance. Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant for GIECP for low-income young adults

Educators – identified competencies, industry-recognized credentials and uniform curriculum. Nuclear Unified Curriculum Project

Employers - over 25 states have energy consortia. Collaboration with industry, education and government.
