Careers in Energy Week will take place October 19–23 and it will bring the energy industry together to highlight energy career opportunities.

“Celebrated annually during the third week of October, this industry milestone highlights our commitment to building a highly skilled energy workforce and serves as a springboard for year-round engagement and advocacy,” the Center for Energy Workforce Development notes on its website.

It is offering  2026 Careers in Energy Week resources, with ready-to-use career materials, interactive activities, social media content, and more to help organizations plan their celebrations.
