You’ve got the power
We are recruiting Energizers for Summer & Fall 2023. Apply now!
The summer program will start the last week of May 2023.
Mentoring sessions can take place virtually with your mentee!
Meeting our community’s energy needs sustainably is an all-hands-on-deck, technical challenge. Yet only 26% of U.S. technology jobs are held by women. The She’s in Power program helps close the gap with hands-on, projects and mentorship. We can’t do it without experienced people like you to guide the next generation!
The She’s in Power Mentoring Program matches young women in Northern Colorado who want to pursue a career in clean energy with a hands-on project and a professional mentor for 4 – 6 months.
Energizers are clean energy professionals (we welcome men and women to apply) who want to impart knowledge and opportunities for growth to emerging female professionals in the clean energy sector.
Mentoring is a partnership based on open communications and productive and proactive interactions. We follow the 3Cs of effective mentorship – Clarity, Communication, Commitment!
Criteria:
- We welcome men and women to apply to be an Energizer!
- You can be located anywhere and work with your Spark virtually although we have a preference for Colorado-based professionals at this time since our Sparks and Projects are in Northern Colorado and we would prefer in person opportunities.
- If you have over 5 years experience in the clean energy and related industries, and are interested in sharing your knowledge and experience with an emerging professional, please consider applying.
How can you benefit by participating?
- Impact a woman’s life – support a Spark’s growth and success with their Power Project
- Learn how to be an effective mentor through our training and support
- Be part of a community of women for women in the industry
- Grow your network

- Participating in kick-off and wrap-up meetings and celebrations with the Power Partner and Spark.

Mentor training will provide you with guidance.
