Admin/Manage support Green jobs training programs at Laney College

Dear Laney Green Jobs Community,

I am seeking a colleague available to work with me on managing the green jobs training programs at Laney College in Oakland until September 30th as a full-time consultant. I expect the position to evolve from there, but continued funding is uncertain. We are serving a growing number of students, and our team needs an additional member to assist in fulfilling the terms of an ARRA grant. You'll find more information below. Please share widely with colleagues in the green building and education communities. Send a resume and cover letter as soon as possible for consideration.

Thank you,

Emily Courtney
