About Ryan Lapoma
Green building advocate and climate workforce strategist with 15+ years of experience designing and managing high-impact training programs across the utility, nonprofit, and government sectors. As Sr. Manager of Workforce Programs at Earth Advantage, I lead initiatives that bridge contractor education, equity-focused workforce development, and sustainable residential building programs — from hands-on On-the-Job Training to advanced HVAC and building science trainings. Passionate about systems that work for people and the planet, I specialize in cross-sector partnerships, DEI leadership, and aligning program delivery with evolving industry landscapes.
