An initiative of the National Council for Workforce Education, the Sustainability Education and Economic Development Center (SEED) supports community colleges and their partners with curriculum and resources to transform educational programs for a sustainable future.

U.S. Department of Energy-Sponsored Map to Guide Students Into Careers Without Degrees

Community colleges and job seekers can use this resource tool to combat climate change, support infrastructure, and bolster the workforce.

Energy efficiency has a key role to play at the intersection of these goals but access to workers remains a challenge in this sector. A green buildings career map, developed by the non-profit Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC) and funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, aims to address this gap.

The map shows thirty-two “new collar” energy efficiency jobs that could be obtained without degrees.

We encourage you to submit resources or open-source curriculum for possible posting on the SEED Center website.

Note: SEED is managed by a team of higher education experts who vet and curate resources and curriculum. Thus, not all submitted materials will appear on the website.
