In our effort to create on-ramps into the NESEA community, we currently provide the following to emerging professionals and students:
- Special pricing to BuildingEnergy conferences
- Special pricing for student and emerging professional memberships
- Annual Emerging Professional Career Forums
- Scholarships for memberships, NESEA conferences, courses, & travel exchanges (details below)

BE the Future: NESEA's Scholarship Program
BuildingEnergy Boston 2016 saw the launch of the “BE the Future” initiative, catalyzed by NESEA board member Phil Kaplan. In this program, participating sponsors directly fund current students' full-day passes to the BuildingEnergy Boston conference and one-year NESEA Memberships. We also offer these opportunities to a limited-number of emerging professionals, defined as any individual who has been working in their field for five years or less. Read more...
