It is a one-stop platform that directly helps workers in the fossil fuel industry understand how their current skills transfer to a wide range of careers in climate solutions including rapidly growing industries such as wind, solar, energy efficiency, and more. The Climate Career Portal connects workers to current job openings, training programs, and energy projects in the net-zero economy across Canada. Whether you are a worker looking to transition, a company looking to post jobs and attract skilled applicants, an educational institution looking to share your training programs, or simply curious to learn more, we invite you to check out the platform at:
