Resources and Events

EnergyCareers 2021 will bring students, veterans, career changers, women and those under-represented in today’s workforce together to discover careers in energy. CEWD is partnering with utilities, contractors, educators, workforce systems, minority-serving organizations, veterans groups and others to showcase the industry’s career offerings. We are seeking natural problem-solvers and critical thinkers, those looking for a stable career that will both charge and change their futures, and those who are interested in protecting our nation’s resources, while serving their communities.

To take place on October 20, EnergyCareers 2021 will build on this success of last year’s first-time event which attracted 1,500 registrants who were eager to learn more about what the industry has to offer and interact with companies offering internships, jobs, and insight.

Event Overview

EnergyCareers 2021 will showcase careers in energy to those interested in learning more, for both immediate employment and those who want to explore options for the future. It will also educate influencers, those who guide career-seekers and students, so they, too, are aware of all we have to offer. Using a sophisticated virtual platform, EnergyCareers 2021 will offer insight into the breadth of energy sector career opportunities, benefits of working in the industry, next step guidance, connections with local employers, a career fair, and more.
