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.

Excellent experience, lot of reading material for the people that work more than 8 hours a day, I think that 10 weeks is a good time frame to finish this course, great!!!

Took a micro hydro course, and after a week of intense classroom/lab/field studies, left confident that I can apply the concepts to either a home project or to pivot into a career in large hydro electric. Pleased with the instruction provided by Ken and Gabe. Wish I could come back for the solar water pumping course, but definitely highly recommend SEI to anyone looking to boost their skills in renewable energy ⚡️
