Governor Cooper visits innovative apprenticeship pilot preparing students for clean energy jobs

Governor Roy Cooper visited Halifax Community College today to talk with 20 high school students and instructors who are part of North Carolina’s first Clean Energy Youth Apprenticeship Pilot, the Halifax Lighthouse Solar Camp. As North Carolina moves to a clean energy economy, skilled workers are needed to fill jobs and help the industry grow. Work-based learning activities such as apprenticeships help create a sustainable pipeline of qualified workers and provide educational and economic opportunities for students.
