Solar Energy has become a major part of our lives today with more and more people wanting to use solar energy in their homes and businesses as a way to save money as well as help our environment. Because of the large difference between solar energy and our traditional energy sources, solar energy training is required and recommended to ensure every detail is covered correctly. The internet offers many varieties of solar energy training depending on the level of learning you would like to obtain. Solar energy training may be in the form of simple one or two-day workshops, 6-week training programs or complete programs lasting a year or more and preparing the individual with every important aspect of solar energy. Here are some examples of some of the solar energy training courses that are available and what you can hope to gain from each of these.

Solar Electricity Workshop

This solar energy training workshop may be offered in a 6-day session or a 2-week program. The student will learn how to safely design and install different types of solar electric systems. The workshops involve part classroom and part hands on in the PV lab yard. The student will be expected to be able to do the system correctly.

PV Design (online)

This program lasts for six weeks and will teach the student to design an entire solar electric power system (photovoltaic) all inside your home. Although it's an online course, the same topics will be covered that are in the face to face classrooms offering PV Training. A lot of this solar energy training involves text books, CDs, reading materials and resource links online. For additional hands-on experience, students can combine this solar energy training with a PV Lab course.

Advanced PV- NEC Compliance and Design Criteria

If you're a student that wants to learn more than just how to install a solar system in your home, this is the perfect choice for your level of solar energy training. Upon completion of this course, you'll be ready to seek employment in the solar industry. You'll be able to follow the design and installation of a PV system as well as dealing with maintenance and troubleshooting issues. This advanced solar energy training puts special emphasis on learning how to be compliant with the National Electric Code. Students must have successfully completed a hands-on workshop for PV design and installation prior to taking this advanced course.

Solar energy is a very wide range in terms of possible options and their solar energy training courses and programs are equally diversified. Some other very popular choices for solar energy training include renewable fuels, solar thermal (solar hot water & solar heating systems), wind power, sustainable home design, straw bale building, building natural homes and more.
