Summary
ReVision Energy has established the ReVision Energy Technical Center (RETC) at its Brentwood, New Hampshire headquarters, creating a new apprenticeship opportunity for aspiring electricians. This state-approved program enables individuals, regardless of their educational background, to gain essential classroom training and hands-on experience while earning wages as they work toward certification.
This initiative comes at a crucial time for New Hampshire, which faces a shortage of skilled workers in the trades. By fostering local talent through apprenticeships in the growing solar sector, the program aims to not only meet the demand for skilled labor but also contribute to the state's economic growth and clean energy goals.
Why this matters for apprenticeships
The launch of the RETC underscores the importance of registered apprenticeship programs in addressing workforce shortages in the skilled trades. By providing a pathway for individuals to gain valuable skills and advance their careers, this initiative highlights the potential of earn-and-learn models to create a sustainable workforce in the clean energy sector.
