We are pleased to share the launch of the Spring 2022 term of the U.S. Depart­ment of Energy’s Clean Cities Uni­ver­si­ty Work­force Devel­op­ment Pro­gram (CCUWDP). This spring, CCUWDP is offer­ing 50 work­force devel­op­ment pro­gram posi­tions across the nation and appli­ca­tions are now avail­able.
