SEI helped me get a start in solar 15 years ago and they continue to improve their educational content. I highly recommend their courses for anyone getting into the industry or interested in furthering their career.

The course was very simple. Basically just watched video lectures and answered multiple choice questioned quizzes, which were also very simple. I am looking forward to attending the in person lab to get a feel for working with the installation equipment, tools, and procedures. I’ll probably have a better review of the course after completing the lab.There wasn’t much interaction with my instructor-not a bad thing. There were three graded assignments that needed to be submitted through the course portal. All of the instructions for the assignments were clear and straight forward. They were also very simple.After completing the course, I think I would have planned my approach a bit differently; reading more of the textbook and additional resources to broaden my scope of the course material and overall subject matter. I’m hoping that I still have access to the course materials to review the course content later.Overall content, but still eager to learn the technical hands-on skills.

SEI provides a great curriculum packed with information and instructors that care about everything involved! I Took PV101 online and you can really tell how much they enjoy working with solar and teaching the world about regenerative energy.

PV101 was a well-made online class. For those who have no or very little PV related knowledge, this course would be perfect. I did wish there were more details in certain areas since I already work in the field, but I learned most of the material I took the course to learn. Self-paced and very doable. I work full-time and spent 1 workday per week over the course timeframe (about 8-10 hours per week) for those wondering. Instructors were very responsive and friendly.

SEI is an absolutely necessary education before laying hands on PV solar systems. I would never recommend anyone go into active practice of solar installation/commissioning without attending and gaining the crucial knowledge that is learned here. SEI houses amazing and heavily capable/knowledgable teachers. You learn from SEI, you learn from the best.

The online course I took through SEI was one of the most comprehensive and practical educational experiences I've had. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable, with real-world experience that made the content relevant, The flexibility of the online format allowed me to study at my own pace, and the community of learners and professionals provided valuable insights. After completing the course, I feel well-prepared to take the NABCEP exam, this certification has significantly boosted my career in the Solar Industry.
