In partnership with Schneider Electric, Google, Barclays, LACI & IYF
The energy transition is underway - but the workforce needed to deliver it is not keeping pace. Across the full arc of how energy is generated, moved, stored, serviced, & used - spanning utilities, power generation, advanced manufacturing, fleet electrification, data centers, & industrial infrastructure - a persistent & structural challenge has emerged: the skilled trades & technician roles most critical to new energy infrastructure face serious & growing skills gaps, & too often the employers, training providers, & talent leaders working to close them are doing so in isolation.
NationSwell, in partnership with Barclays, LACI, IYF, Schneider Electric, & Google is convening a working session at Brooklyn Army Terminal - home to BATWorks, NYC's emerging climate innovation hub - to change that. Bringing together talent leaders, hiring managers, & workforce training providers, this in-person convening will use IYF's proven industry competency framework to surface & validate the most critical skills gaps across the skilled trades workforce driving new energy infrastructure.
The day will move from insight to action. The goal is a shared vocabulary & shared priorities that attendees can take back to their organizations, & use to advocate for the training investments, certifications, & systems changes the new energy infrastructure demands.
BATWorks offers a uniquely fitting backdrop: a place where growth-stage climate companies, workforce development, & hands-on innovation converge. Where employers are growing & talent supply can grow with them.
Attendees will leave knowing they are not alone in this challenge - & with concrete, validated priorities to guide the next steps.
