How to use the Handbook

Now that it has been established why climate jobs matter and how this handbook/mini-course will aid in your finding of a climate solution and company that solves it, it is time to learn how this mini-course is set up the way it is!

How is this course set up?

Climate Tech Handbook’s uses the Dream Climate Job System to get you to your climate tech job!

note
Dream Climate Job System:
  1. Choose a climate solution (you will complete this in Level 2).
  2. Select 10 companies working on that climate solution (you will do this in Level 3).
  3. Build your portfolio and network (you will do this in Level 3).

Our model is loosely based on Austin Belcak’s Dream Job System.


There are 3 learning levels!

Level 1: An introductory lesson on what climate tech is, fundamental climate knowledge you should have, and an overview of terms and commonly asked questions.

Level 2: Here, you will do research on select climate solutions and choose one.

Level 3: Once you have a climate solution selected, you will research and choose 10 companies you are willing to work with and build your portfolio and network to increase your chances of getting a climate tech job!
