Are you an environmental professional?

If you work in any environmental-related industry or non-profit, you might like to take a look at this survey from RMIT and the Environmental Jobs Network.

They’re researching the range of professional environmental jobs across Australia, to identify the types of skills, knowledge and experience associated with these jobs. This info will be used to create a 2010 Australian Guide to Environmental Careers.

The guide will be used to help people find out about the range of careers available where you get to care for the environment in some way. It sounds like it’d be very useful, and given how keen I am on expanding the green jobs industry, I’d love to see it become a success.

Obviously, though, the people making the guide want to make sure they’ve got as broad an overview as possible. This is where you can help if you already have an eco-job – let them know what it is, what kind of training it needs, etc.

It does take 25 minutes to complete, but you’ll be helping the next generation of eco-workers get started, so I hope you’ll make the time. Check it out: Environmental Career Survey.
