1 Career Pathway: Scientific Louisiana Workforce Commission September 2011
2 In 2009, Louisiana and Mississippi partnered to research economic development opportunities and workforce needs associated with the region s green economy. Through a $2.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, a consortium of the Louisiana Workforce Commission, Louisiana State University, Mississippi Department of Employment Security, and Mississippi State University conducted an extensive study of economic activity that is beneficial to the environment. This and other research products were developed as part of that effort. This workforce solution was funded by a grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor s Employment and Training Administration. The solution was created by the grantee and does not necessarily reflect the official position of the U.S. Department of Labor.

4 Introduction As part of a comprehensive study of Louisiana s green economy, career pathways were developed to provide career guidance to students and job seekers interested in coastal restoration work. Each career pathway identifies the specific occupations within an occupational group that are involved in restoration activities. Each career pathway is organized by the level of education most commonly required for an occupation. This allows students to explore career opportunities available for different levels of educational attainment. Useful information such as sample job titles, occupation descriptions and wage data are included for each occupation. In addition, post-secondary educational programs that can lead to a career in coastal restoration work are provided. Information used to develop the following career pathway was gathered through a series of in-person interviews, telephone interviews and focus groups with employers conducting restoration work. Additional information was sourced from the Employment and Training Administration s Occupational Information Network. Finally, Louisiana Board of Regent s data was used to identify degree and certificate programs that would best prepare students for careers in coastal restoration. ii
