Energy Mentors Program

Do you want to conserve energy and contribute towards NAU’s climate action goals? Enroll in our newly revised Energy Mentors program!
We offer 2 training sessions. Everyone must take the Energy Stewards class first, before enrolling in Energy Advisors.
- Energy Stewards – Learn the basics about climate change, energy conservation, and what you can do to help!
- Energy Advisors – Learn how to be a leader amongst your peers and influence others to save energy
Who are Energy Mentors?
Energy Mentors are NAU staff members who care about sustainability and climate change, and who want to help promote energy conservation on campus.
What do Energy Mentors do?
Energy Mentors are leaders who encourage other members of the campus community to reduce NAU’s environmental impact. This is in alignment with our NAU Climate Action Plan‘s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2030 and promoting a culture of sustainability on campus.
Responsibilities include:
- Making choices to conserve energy on campus and at home
- Encourage fellow members of the NAU community to adopt key energy-saving behaviors
- Complete semester projects around energy conservation within their departments
- Participate in our Building Energy Conservation Initiative
- Facilitate the distribution of information involving energy conservation
- Attend and support Energy Mentor or other sustainability events
