[SPN-Discussion] NESEA Emerging Professionals Career Forum: NYC

[Jim Henderson]

The Emerging Professionals Career Forum is a free, interactive event providing a venue for students and emerging professionals to gain practical strategies for building professional networks, including resources for finding jobs and internships. Attendees will have a chance to hone their networking skills and exchange advice while they meet one another and the NESEA Board of Directors in small discussion groups.  Because of the interdisciplinary nature of NESEA and its Board, this event will bring together a mix of individuals of diverse professional backgrounds, each with valuable insights to share with attendees.

The Career Forum is designed for people pursuing careers in renewable energy, the high performance building sector, sustainability, and related industries. Attendees will be invited to attend the Opening Reception for BuildingEnergy NYC immediately following the Career Forum. This event is free of charge, but registration is required.  Light refreshments will be provided.  Please direct questions to fmacgregor at nesea.org.
