“Before attending the MOVE-IT program, I was only familiar with the well-known green job fields such as solar, wind and geo-thermal. In completing the course, I am glad to be aware of many other green avenues I can pursue such as environmental monitoring. My intent when participating in the MOVE-IT program was to gain the knowledge and certifications offered. In addition to that, MOVE-IT has assisted my job advancement resulting in a better quality of life for my family.”
