April 2016 | America’s Electric Cooperatives (webinar)

Presented on April 5, 2016 to the 43 universities involved in the DOE-funded Grid Engineering for Accelerated Energy Deployment (GEARED) program by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA). In this webinar, staff discussed how electric co-ops are different from other electricity providers and the benefits of working for a co-op. Participants were introduced to the NRECA sponsored job board (touchstoneenergy.jobs) used by many co-ops to post internships and jobs as well as NRECA’s annual TechAdvantage Conference (techadvantage.org) as a networking and learning opportunity for students.
