Green jobs represent one of the fastest growing and changing segments of the global economy. You have an opportunity to introduce young people to career paths that are not only in demand, but that are also rewarding and help conserve the environment. Green Jobs: Exploring Forest Careers contains four learning activities that engage youth in actively exploring forest-related green careers. Anyone can use this resource with youth ages 12-25 in settings ranging from community youth programs and school classrooms, to college and career prep, to field trips and forest tours. Designed to be flexible, use individual activities or use the entire set as a stand-alone unit. The guide also contains a quiz that helps youth match their personality with an array of green jobs opportunities, and a self-assessment of their technical and other skills, such as communication and problem solving. Appendices include a list of career information websites, job boards and connections to academic standards.
