During RE+ Southeast, Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC), and Apprenticeship in Clean Energy (ACE) Network, invite solar and clean energy companies to gather at our Apprenticeship & Workforce Power Hour in order to connect with organizations and experts that can support companies in meeting the Inflation Reduction Act's Registered Apprenticeship requirements and other workforce needs.
