During SJI team members from our HR and Training teams presented to students at Camden County Technical Schools and Delsea Regional High School. During the events, they connected with nearly 100 students and discussed the wide range of career opportunities available in the energy industry.

Students representing programs such as HVAC, plumbing, construction, and welding joined the discussion and learned more about how their skills and interests can translate into careers in energy, as well as opportunities through our SPARK High School Internship Program.

One of the highlights was hearing from our former SPARK interns, who shared firsthand experience with the program and offered students a valuable peer perspective on what an internship can provide.

A special thank you to our team members for taking the time to share your expertise and insights. Through mentorship and experiential learning opportunities, SJI is committed to building strong talent pipelines and supporting the workforce of the future.
