MetroDenverCareers.com launched as resource for career information

"The Metro Denver WIRED Initiative has created MetroDenverCareers.com , a place for students, job seekers, educators and business professionals to learn about and access career resources for some of the region's fastest growing, high-wage, industries - aerospace, bioscience, energy, and information technology-software.

MetroDenverCareers.com includes new career interest brochures that WIRED created in partnership with the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment. The four brochures contain descriptions and salaries of industry occupations, skills and education needed for each occupation and the places individuals can go to attain the needed skills and education.
In addition to career brochures, MetroDenverCareers.com also features two newly created career interest videos for the aerospace and IT industries and previously created videos for the bioscience and energy industries. The videos showcase the breadth of Colorado companies and jobs found in these industries, and dispel some common myths. One myth that is dismissed is the notion that these industries have jobs available for only certain education levels.

"This site and the brochures, videos and resources it contains does an excellent job of encouraging the development of a home-grown skilled workforce for some of the region's most important industries," said Janice Rooney, corporate relations manager at the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory. "I hope anyone considering a career, a job change or looking for information about the industries will take advantage of all that MetroDenverCareers.com has to offer."

About the Metro Denver WIRED InitiativeThe Metro Denver WIRED (Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development) Initiative is a four-year, $15 million regional workforce development grant from the U.S. Department of Labor. WIRED is developing a pipeline of workers for four of the nine-county Metro Denver region's fastest-growing industries: aerospace, bioscience, energy, and information technology - software.
