At the official launch event, program leaders and supporters gathered at the California Mobility Center to unveil the program and spotlight its long-term impact on workforce development, sustainability and educational equity across Sacramento.<\/p><p>\u201cWe\u2019re not just building career pathways\u2014we\u2019re building futures,\u201d said Orville Thomas, CEO of Cal EPIC. \u201cCalifornia continues to lead the way in new energy and transportation technologies, and this program will teach students the skills for long-term job opportunities in manufacturing and maintenance of clean tech.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Addressing a Crisis Through CTE<\/strong><br \/>Career and technical education (CTE) has proven to be a powerful force for change, especially for the district\u2019s most vulnerable students. According to SCUSD data, students experiencing homelessness (SEH) who complete CTE pathways graduate at a rate of 96 percent, compared to just 68 percent of all SEH students. In fact, youth without a high school diploma are 4.5 times more likely to experience homelessness later in life, underscoring the life-changing potential of programs like Green Career Pathways.<\/p><p>\u201cSCUSD is committed to preparing all students for life after graduation,\u201d said Lisa Allen, superintendent of Sacramento City Unified School District. \u201cBy aligning our district\u2019s educational offerings with industry needs, we\u2019re giving students the tools to break cycles of poverty and step into stable, fulfilling careers in Sacramento\u2019s growing green energy sector.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>A Model for Workforce Readiness<\/strong><br \/>The Green Career Pathways program directly responds to Sacramento\u2019s increasing demand for skilled workers in the energy, construction, and utilities industries\u2014the fourth-largest employment sector in the region, generating over 1,000 new jobs per year. Students will exit the program with certifications that prepare them for immediate employment, helping them avoid student debt while establishing long-term career stability.<\/p><p>\u201cToday\u2019s launch of the Green Career Pathways program is a powerful commitment to our students, our environment, and a more equitable clean energy future,\u201d said Congresswoman Doris Matsui (CA-07). \u201cSacramento is moving forward and investing in local solutions that prepare the next generation for good-paying, climate-resilient careers so all can thrive.\u201d<\/p><p>In the Sacramento region, students who complete high school with technical training can earn competitive wages in growing clean energy careers. In-demand roles include:<\/p><ul><li>Electric vehicle charging technician ($48,976)<\/li><li>Natural gas mechanic ($50,986)<\/li><li>Hydrogen energy system operations engineer ($84,444)<\/li><\/ul><p>\u201cCalifornia\u2019s clean energy goals require a workforce that\u2019s as diverse and resilient as the communities we serve,\u201d said Doug Ismail, president of the <a href=\"http:\/\/masonicfoundation.org\">California Masonic Foundation<\/a>. \u201cCareer and Technical Education doesn\u2019t just teach technical skills\u2014it builds confidence, adaptability, and a mindset of lifelong learning. These are essential traits for navigating a changing economy. This program ensures every student\u2014regardless of background or circumstance\u2014has a clear path to success and the opportunity to help power California\u2019s future.\u201d<\/p><p>In addition to hands-on technical training, students will engage in soft skills development, mentorship, and career exploration through partnerships with local employers and experts. Live demonstrations during today\u2019s launch showcased the kind of training students will receive, ranging from EV battery modules to personal protective equipment and solar technologies.<\/p><p><strong>About the Masons of California<\/strong><br \/>The Masons of California have more than 35,000 members and more than 330 lodges located throughout the state.
