Supporting Career Transitions
The Global Energy Transition (GET) organization hosted its third annual event on 22 November 2025, focusing on supporting displaced oil and gas workers. This initiative is crucial as the energy sector shifts towards low-carbon alternatives, creating new career opportunities in sectors such as advanced manufacturing and technology [1][2].

Future Prospects
Looking ahead, GET plans to expand its initiatives, seeking to bridge the gap between traditional energy workers and emerging industries. This ongoing commitment underscores the organization’s dedication to fostering an inclusive and equitable energy transition [2].
