December 16, 2025 — The Building Performance Association, a longtime E4TheFuture partner, today announced it will soon begin operating a new, federally approved apprenticeship program in Massachusetts for energy efficiency workers. The program will provide pathways for energy specialist and weatherization careers, and advance business growth in the Commonwealth of MA.
“We are thrilled to expand our Registered Apprenticeship Program into Massachusetts, a state that is leading the way in energy efficiency,” said Steve Skodak, CEO of BPA. “This program not only equips employers with the skilled talent they need to grow, but also opens doors for individuals, especially those from underrepresented communities, to begin meaningful, well-paying careers. It’s a crucial step toward building the future-ready workforce our industry needs.”
Pat Stanton, Executive Director of E4TheFuture, said, “E4TheFuture is proud to support the launch of energy efficiency-focused Registered Apprenticeships in Massachusetts as part of our legacy initiatives. It is fitting that our endowment, created with the sale of Conservation Services Group—a Massachusetts organization that grew its own workforce to 800 employees—will further the development of energy efficiency professionals in the residential sector.”
A pilot is expected to launch early in 2026.
