ABOUT THE CENTER FOR ECOTECHNOLOGY
The Center for EcoTechnology is seeking five qualified college
graduate candidates for an 11-month paid fellowship position to
work with our staff to carry out a range of activities related to
climate action initiatives and educational programming in western
Massachusetts. The EcoFellows will support CET’s initiatives to
assist residents, students, institutions and businesses across the
region in ongoing programs in energy efficiency, home energy
services, renewable energy, and waste reduction through recycling,
reuse and composting.
The EcoFellowship begins with a full orientation and in-depth
trainings by CET professionals in subjects related to above
programs, professional development exploring a variety of
environmental topics throughout the fellowship and bi-weekly
mentoring sessions. EcoFellows are offered in-depth career
development support during the fellowship.
EcoFellows will be based in CET’s Northampton office, with travel between CET locations and into local communities.
