James King
Director of Workforce Training
James joined Solar One’s Green Workforce Training program in 2010. He teaches and develops training curricula that aim to be enjoyable as well as educational – and has the utmost fun doing it! James is certified in BPI Building Analyst, BPI Multifamily Building Operator, GPRO Operations and Maintenance, and GPRO Electrical. Coming out of the IT industry, James graduated from DeVry University in 2007 with a degree in Network Communications. For three years he worked in computer network administration in both New York and Seattle. Teaching is something that James has always enjoyed doing. During high school, James volunteered at Big Brothers and Big Sisters of New York as a math tutor. In college, James held tutoring sessions for math and physics, and taught ABE math at two of Seattle’s correctional facilities. Back in New York, James volunteered at Strive for tutoring sessions in GED-Math prior to working for Solar One. The ability to share his love and appreciation of math and technical subjects is a major focal point and passion in his work.
