Workforce Needs Assessment: Energy, Construction, and Utilities

This 2018 report presents findings on the analysis of the energy, construction, and utilities industry cluster.

The report provides an overview of the cluster, industry trends and economic impact, as well as an overview of the top occupations in demand in the cluster requiring post-secondary education or training, along with projected occupational demand, institutions providing related education and training, and possible workforce gaps. The report also includes a summary of findings and recommendations for addressing workforce needs within the construction industry cluster.

Valley Vision and partners are working across the region to address the key findings from this assessment as part of our Capital Region Workforce Action Plan activities. We have produced several additional resources through the regular industry advisory meetings which we organize. See also:
