UI, SCG Continue Investing in Connecticut’s Next Generation of Trade Professionals

The companies welcome 10 students for the 10-week Trade Internship Program connecting them to hands-on career pathways




United Illuminating (UI) and Southern Connecticut Gas (SCG), subsidiaries of Avangrid, Inc., today announced the launch of their 2026 Trade Internship Program. This 10-week program provides high school and community college students with real-world exposure to union careers in the electric and natural gas industries, where skilled workers are in high demand.

One of the best parts is seeing students come back,” said Olga Kaminsky, Director of Talent Acquisition at Avangrid.



“When they return, it means they found something here, whether it’s a passion for the work or a clear path forward. That’s exactly what we’re trying to create: experiences that actually stick with them beyond the summer.”
