NESEA welcomes students and emerging professionals in the sustainable design, building and renewable energy fields! Let BuildingEnergy12 help you further your career in the industry. Here's how:
- Volunteering

- Mentor Booth
- Networking Events
- Career Lounge sponsored by National Grid
- How to Register
Volunteering
Every year about 90 member-volunteers come together to help NESEA run the BuildingEnergy conference. Volunteers are critical to the success of conference. Plus, they make a lot of great business connections while they help out at the sessions, at registration and at the NESEA booth, among other things. Interested in being a member-volunteer? Contact Janice Kurkoski at bevolunteer@nesea.org or call her at 413-774-6051 x34.
