Over the past year, the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) has championed opportunities for economic recovery through equitable workforce training. This Green Jobs Report, commissioned by LACI, researched by HR&A Advisors, and funded by the California Workforce Development Board (CWDB) and the City of Los Angeles Workforce Development Board, offers an in-depth analysis of Green Jobs in Los Angeles County and lays forth a course of action to grow an inclusive green economy in Los Angeles and beyond.
During the discussion with elected officials and other leaders, we will explore how we invest in the job training needed to ensure everyone can join the green economy, how we engage stakeholders in academia, government, business, and labor to better collaborate on workforce development, and much more.
