Our Course Key Features
Instructional Support from Live Instructors
Our online courses are taught by many of the same instructors that teach our in-person sessions. All of our instructors are actively working in the solar industry and are experts in the field.
Online Forums & Discussions
Our online forums create a sense of a connected learning community and gives you direct access to your online instructors to ask questions and make connections with your classmates.
Streaming Video Lectures
The next best thing to actually sitting in one of our in-person classes is to be able to see that exact same instructor teaching the exact same curriculum through a streaming video format.
Engaging Exercises & Lab Video Examples
The best way to understand the technical theory found in renewable energy technologies is by seeing and doing. Our lab facility videos and exercises are great learning resources.
