Thievy Viswanathan I was watching this on CZcams in Santa Monica, Ca. I think you are an excellent trainer with deep knowledge of this area. I should know because I am retired with knowledge of the energy field gained working in Ontario. That includes a Professional electric and electronic engineering degree from Queen’s University and a life-long career with Ontario Hydro as well a career as a Senior Policy Advisor at the Ministry of Energy and Environment. I just hope you are getting paid well for the knowledge and communication skills you bring to your field. I say that because I’ve seen too many competent engineers trained in India who are not adequately compensated in Canada. Nizar Jiwan, Toronto.
Thank you so much. This video was very helpful!
Thank you from Santa Cruz, California!
I'm inspired by your journey and transition

My question:
How can an engineer in an industrial setting (maintenance, process, mechanical, chemical), apply energy certificates and trainings?
Asking because energy efficiency in Canada seems to be limited to buildings.
I am surprised that there is no NOC code for energy management in Canada. Do you know which NOC code I would have to choose on my Express Entry application that's the closest for Certified Energy Managers? I don't want to choose NOC 21310 - Electrical and Electronics Engineers for my engineering degree because I do not intend to pursue P.Eng. in Canada and not going to be an Engineering Manager. I want to focus on energy management with my CEM, CEA and PMP. Thanks
Hi ,mam I am vijayan from India .I am in energy audit for last 3 years.Is any scope is for energy engineering professional in canada
If you're a Certified Energy Manager and a LEED GA, but still job searching,
- review your resume. Don't pay $200 for this, seek a government supported employee or immigration aide agency that will review your resume with you.
- are you tailoring your resume to each job, or at least, each job field?
- are you applying to jobs that fit your profile?
- do you have a good overview of your work experience so far.
- are you interviewing well? With confidence, warm, knowledgeable?
Is Energy management in demand ??
