Green Careers Conferences
The Energize Schools Green Careers Conference (GCC) is a place for high school students to explore career pathways within the environmental sector. Professionals from the field join students in their community to talk about how they arrived in their current position, what their job entails, and offer real feedback on the environmental issues they're supporting. Students also present their own classroom and community projects that are working to clean and protect our planet. The GCC is an event designed for students and professionals alike!
