Generation is co-creating a new green jobs training programme in collaboration with Macquarie Group Foundation and Macquarie Green Investment Group.

This new training bootcamp will provide employers with top-performing junior hires for retrofitting / green jobs by training young people who have faced barriers to employment across the UK.

Join this Lunch n Learn to find out more about the programme and how you can get involved as an employer. During the session, Generation will:

  • Introduce their bootcamp training model for equipping diverse groups with the skills they need to thrive in junior roles
  • Share their plans for upcoming work training people for green jobs 
  • Look for employer/trainer input on how to take the project forward

This programme, as a profession-specific 400h full-time bootcamp, will:

  • Provide employers working on green and renewable energy and retrofitting with a reliable source of diverse and highly-motivated, entry-level talent equipped with the specific skills, mindsets and behaviours needed to succeed
  • Provide life-changing opportunities to individuals who face barriers to employment – specifically unemployed young people aged 18-29 (targeting >50% female, >80% ethnic minority)

Employer input will be crucial and by engaging now you'll have the chance to specifically shape the programme for your organisation's needs. Please also register your interest in the programme by completing this survey.
