Clean Green Serene Training Program

The Green Clean Serene (GCS) Clean Energy Project

The GCS Project encourages job creation within businesses and industries that promote clean energy practices, and pays for training and wages for individuals interested in those jobs. GCS is administered by the Lackawanna County Workforce Development Board. This project represents a unique multi-county partnership among four different Northeastern Pennsylvania Workforce Development Boards that span Bradford, Carbon, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, Pike, Schuylkill, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Tioga, Wayne, and Wyoming counties. 

The GCS program provides training opportunities for new hires and current employees, paying all of the training costs and one half of the wages!

Companies are eligible to participate in the program if they have a physical presence in the NEPA region and have a primary business focus of at least 51% in any of the following Pennsylvania Clean Energy Sectors: Energy Efficiency, Clean Energy Generation, Alternative Transportation, Clean Grid and Storage, and Clean Fuels.
