What is a Career Trek?
ZNRG sponsors and organizes Climate Career Treks - professional “field trips” that allow students and early professionals to visit companies and organizations to learn about their work, get to know the workplace culture, and network with industry professionals. So far, our treks have engaged over 200 students. Check our website to stay updated on our next climate trek.
