Electric Vehicle Advisory 1: Education & Training

Join us on Friday, August 27, 2021 for an advisory conversation on emerging occupations in: 

Electrical Vehicle Maintenance
Charging Station Installation
Advanced Manufacturing of Components
Relevant Supply Chain Logistics

This cross sector event includes occupations in Energy, Construction, and Utilities (ECU), Advanced Transportation and Logistics (ATL) and Advanced Manufacturing.  

As California makes the switch to widespread electric vehicle transportation, the Greater Sacramento Region needs to ensure our training programs keep pace and provide access to traditionally disinvested populations. This advisory will feature innovative practices from other colleges, examine existing inventory of training programs in our region, and present labor market and occupational trends in this rapidly changing field.

Join the conversation as we seek to build an accessible, aligned training pipeline to serve our region. Your participation is necessary and valued to help guide investments in programs, certificates, and curricula to serve the needs of the Electric Vehicle ecosystem.
