About the program
EnergyCo and the NSW Department of Education, in partnership with VERTO and SKIVL, are offering training programs for those aspiring to enter the construction and renewable energy sectors.
This two-week course, running in Mudgee and Dunedoo in May, offers hands-on training directly relevant to construction and renewable energy jobs in the region.
Previous participants have already moved into roles in traffic control, civil construction and labouring, with many gaining confidence, experience and local employment.
You’ll also get the chance to meet local employers working on renewable energy and civil projects across the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).
