Energy Careers

One can make a significant difference in our lives every day with an exciting career in energy. And as the world uses more energy there are more career opportunities in the electricand renewable energy fields than ever. On-the-job training is provided for many well-paying positions, regardless of having a college degree.

Jobs within the industry include careers at full-service utility companies, electric generation companies, and operating companies. In addition, there are related employers including fuel mining, fabrication and enrichment companies, as well as architectural, and construction firms that contribute to the design and development of power plants.

There are also research positions available through organizations such as the U.S. Department of Energy. There is already a shortage of energy personnel and, therefore, there is greater job security in the field. Many people are not aware of the benefits of working in this field and so these jobs are often overlooked.

One can begin working in this industry directly after high school since it provides a wide range of job levels. None of these jobs will be outsourced since the U.S. government considers the energy industry to be a critical asset. It is a great benefit to be able to have a company assist in paying for continued education.
