It depends on who you ask!Pick a scenario…
What does the future Energy Workforce look like?
3
There are multiple scenarios
4
No matter what scenarios you use to envision what
the future electric generation, transmission and distribution system will
look like, we will need a skilled workforce in every
one of them.
So the question becomes..
5
How do we build a diverse pool of potential
workers that have the right knowledge and
skills to enter critical technician and engineering
positions at exactly the point we will
need to hire them?
Workforce Development Drivers
6
A need to balance supply and demand for the energy workforce in key job categories
Skill gaps in potential applicants New and emerging technologies that
require additional skills
