Renewable energy businesses are rapidly expanding and growing due to volatile oil prices, political turmoil, climate change concerns, and government incentives.  As renewable energy businesses flourish and proliferate, they have an increasing need to hire talented and experienced management and technical professionals. This talk will focus on the knowledge and skills needed to break into renewable energy.  We will discuss which of your existing skills and talents will be most valuable to renewable energy businesses, and what new background and knowledge you may wish to acquire to better make the jump to a career in renewables.  At the end of the talk, participants will have a roadmap to guide them in retooling to join the 21st century explosion of renewable energy.
