From Intent to Impact: Chicago's Clean Energy Workforce Powered by Real-Time Outcomes
Chicago has strong programs, strong partners, and strong intent.
The next level is turning that intent into real-time impact — measurable career outcomes, faster coordination, and a workforce ecosystem that actually moves in sync.
Join JPI Group & Career Equity for a live panel with five of Chicago's leading workforce practitioners:
Laticia Dezell Holbert — Senior Manager, Workforce Development, ComEd | 15+ years building the utility talent pipeline that's placed 1,000+ residents in clean energy careers
Brynn Cooksey Sr., CEM — Founder, HVAC U | IREC Certified Master Trainer, HVAC & Building Science Expert
Christine Flynn, MSW, MPA — Research Associate, Workforce Policy Lab | Policy researcher advancing workforce systems for Illinois' clean energy transition
Angus Ferguson, Design Technology Section Manager, Burns & McDonnell
Michael Thuis, Midwest Regional Director, The Carbon League
What we'll cover:
→ What it looks like when intent becomes impact — not theory, but practice
→ How to show up at Chicago Clean Energy Workforce Week (April 6–10) to produce real placements
→ What employers, training programs, and CBOs need to do differently to close the coordination gap
→ How to ensure CEJA's equity commitments produce equitable, real-time outcomes
Workforce Week is April 6–10. Agency Day is April 7. Employer Day is April 8. Talent Day is April 9.
This webinar is your prep session — where the intent becomes the plan.
