The Rhode Island Nursery & Landscape Association (RINLA) represents a $2.5 Billion industry here in Rhode Island, and when the opportunity to partner came about to help recruit candidates for a paid train-to-hire program, we knew of many candidates who would not only thrive, but derive pure joy from this career opportunity.
Earlier this year, SkillsRI was proud to help welcome 72 individuals into the Growing Futures Career Catalyst Training which offers satisfying and environmentally-impactful career paths and “green collar” jobs, for example in tree care, farming, garden centers, greenhouses, landscape construction and maintenance, stone masonry and more.
We are so excited to continue to help support the critical green industry in Rhode Island!
