Canal Alliance celebrated its inaugural High Road Transportation Career Pathway Program graduation on July 15. This automotive workforce training program was developed based on findings of the City of Rafael’s Equitable Low Carbon Economy Plan and research with local transportation employers, in partnership with the LIME Foundation, the City of San Rafael, the Workforce Alliance of the North Bay and Good Green Work.
The project will create equitable access to transportation careers as California policy drives change to address emissions. With this comes the need for new skills and creates new job and entrepreneurship opportunities.
Over 50 students applied to participate in the program. Based on local employer hiring criteria, 14 participants were selected for this pilot based on their aptitudes, motivation and experience. Each participant has now completed the training and is ready to work in the automotive industry.
