Join net.America and ICF for our Lunch and Learn webinar titled Building Stronger Registered Apprenticeship Programs on June 11, 2025 at 2:00 PM ET. This webinar, led by partner West Virginia Women Work, will explore awareness, supportive services, and proven strategies for building strong sustainable Registered Apprenticeship Programs. 

West Virginia Women Work is a nonprofit that supports and advocates for education, employment, and economic equity for all women. For over 20 years the organization has strived to help women in West Virginia earn a living wage. We achieve this goal through a comprehensive program of recruitment, training, referrals, placements, networking, advocacy, retention activities, and public workshops.

The primary focus of the organization’s activities has been to help women explore, train, and secure employment in nontraditional occupations, especially the skilled trades. Our organization has served over 1,000 women in West Virginia with our career coaching service, computer literacy classes, and public career exploration workshops.

Beyond the program benefits for individual job seekers, WVWW also assists employers that struggle to meet employment goals. Our organization creates a partnership network across the state that includes WorkForce WV, Adult Learning Centers, Registered Apprenticeship Programs, and private employers.

Through these partnerships, we have direct access to feedback on the difficulties employers experience when searching for qualified tradeswomen. Our organization works to overcome unmet equal opportunity goals and advance women’s ability to increase their earning potential.

Join us this Global Energy Independence Day for a 60-minute webinar that explores the pivotal role of apprenticeships in the green energy sector. As the world pivots towards sustainable energy sources, the need for skilled professionals who can innovate, manage, and maintain renewable energy technologies is more crucial than ever. This webinar aims to illuminate the pathways that apprenticeships create towards a sustainable tomorrow.

Started in 2006 by an L.A. County Supervisor to coincide with the birth of pioneering electrical engineer Nikola Tesla, Global Energy Independence Day has risen in significance over the last two decades as we continue to reckon with the impacts of climate change on our wallets and out communities. In ICF and net.America’s work, we recognize the critical role of workforce development in a just and timely transition from legacy energy sources to innovative solar, wind, battery, and biomass fuels. We are adding to the conversation by convening a panel of experts who lie at the intersection of workforce development and energy efficiency work. These experts will address all sides of the energy question from generation to use and conservation in multiple sectors of America’s economy. 

Celebrate Global Energy Independence Day with us and discover how apprenticeships are powering the future of green energy!
