>construction.  I'm very interested in sustainable construction, but 
>I'm at a bit of a loss when it comes to finding employment 
>resources.  I don't have much hands-on experience with green 
>building techniques, so I'm considering enrolling first in some of 
>the building schools that are out there. However, I think perhaps it 
>would be better to find an apprenticeship with a company that does 
>this sort of work.  If anyone has any suggestions, I would certainly 
>appreciate them.  Thanks, Lorraine
