Welcome to Your GJA Badge Portal!
At Green Jobs Academy, you do not just sit in a classroom. You master real-world skills that local employers and MassSave contractors notice.
​
As you complete your weatherization and home performance training, you will earn official Digital Skill Badges.
These badges prove that you meet the high standards set by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
