A Special Program being provided in partnership with Cuyahoga Valley Career Center and the Associated Builders & Contractors-Northern Ohio Chapter
When something needs built, workers in the construction industry are responsible for getting it done, whether it’s building a home, roads & bridges, a shopping center, cell tower, baseball stadium, or wind turbine. Today, a focus in construction is on the application of alternative energy technologies to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and traditional energy sources.
Join members of the Associated Builders & Contractors – Northern Ohio Chapter, and students and staff of the Cuyahoga Valley Career Center as they discuss:
- How alternative energies are being used in today’s residential and commercial construction.
- What new technologies and applications we can expect to see in the near future
- Ways to prepare now for a career installing solar panels or wind turbines
- How schools like Cuyahoga Valley Career Center and companies like SUREnergy, and RePower Solutions are leading the way in the training and installation of the latest alternative energy technologies
- How to begin a construction career in alternative energies
This special program will be conducted live from the Cuyahoga Valley Career Center and feature the Energy Systems Program and following guest presenters:
- Irene Ward, Instructor, Cuyahoga Valley Career Center Energy Systems Program
- Christine Bocci, Student – Energy Systems Program
- John Fellhauer, Vice President of Manufacturing, SUREnergy, LLC
