Arne Duncan United States Secretary of Education "It is indeed a great book. Congratulations on a fine product!" John Schaeffer President and Founder Real Goods Solar Living Center Bridging the gap between job seekers and green employment opportunities. The Ecotrain Green Career Guide Almanac is a must see reference tool designed to assist you in your green job search or transition into the fiercely competitive green workforce. This guide will provide you with the know-how to get networked, get educated, and where to submit resumes for your green career destination. Portland State University Career Center This almanac style publication has 223 pages full of information on and reference links to green or sustainable industries, employers, staffing and recruiting firms, educational institutions, associations, books, investors, venture capitalists, and events. Well organized and indexed, it even includes a glossary of terms. If you are serious about your green career then you should invest in this reference book. Gary Munkhoff Green Living Journal Editor This is an outstanding source for job seekers, recruiters and people who want to connect with industry leaders in sustainability. I've used it as a source to find out about trade shows/seminars, and connected with clients and colleagues in my industry. The author put a lot of thought into this guide, it is well organized from start to finish. When people ask me how they can get involved in clean technology/green, I point them to this book. When people ask me about how I got involved in the industry 3 years ago, I wish I had this book as a reference guide. This guide has everything you need for a starting point (and more!) to a green career. Chapter 2 "Green Career & Professional Resource Guide" is my favorite chapter and more than worth the price of the book alone. Green Mac Gal Amazon Book Review "I know how hard it was to find renewable energy and green information when we were creating our Renewable Energy Technology program. There are links to publications, data and reports, websites, and green pages with upcoming events. I highly encourage you to check out this resource." Dr. Susan Wolff Chief Academic Officer Columbia Gorge Community College "I'm finding the Ecotrain Green Career Guide Almanac very helpful in guiding Boly:Welch into the Green Job market and for my own career development. The section you mentioned about Green Staffing Firms is very enlightening. They are examples of what we could do as a staffing firm and extremely helpful. I would like to get the 2010 guide at your next event." Tara Williamson Sustainability Coordinator Boly:Welch Staffing and Recruitment "My brother is a sophomore in college, and he has been talking about getting into the green industry. I was referred to the annually, updated 2010.2011 Ecotrain Green Career Guide Almanac. It was by far the most comprehensive, and useful I had ever seen." Amanda Hatch Housekeeping Management Marriot Hotels "The book is fantastic. Great resource!" Deb Hartman Media Consultant Oregonian & Oregon Live "Your 2010.2011 Ecotrain Green Career Guide Almanac is great! What a wonderful resource, well done!" Maria Jeffrey Development Associate World Forestry Center "I have been unemployed since last September and checking sustainability job boards the whole time.

Regina Ford MBA Graduate Hopeful Green Worker "My background is commercial real estate development & project management. I made a transition into clean technology in 2007.
