Our Emerging Professionals Committee is a group of motivated and like-minded volunteers with five or fewer years of experience in the sustainable building industry. These individuals help plan and implement our lineup of Emerging Professionals (EP) programs throughout the year.
The committee is led by two co-chairs and 10-15 committee members, with meetings held monthly. In addition to shaping the EP program, committee members play an important role in connecting EP members to professional development and networking opportunities. To learn more, join us at an event or email emergingprofessionals@urbangreencouncil.org.
Applications for the 2025 Emerging Professionals Committee are open until December 1! Apply here.
