Get Solar Training the Green Way
Looking for a new line of work? Want to get into the rapidly expanding world of solar installation? Then you’ll be happy to know that the Solar Living Institute (SLI) is now offering an online training course. The SLI is a non-profit that promotes renewable energy and sustainable living through training programs. Getting that training used to mean traveling to the organization’s center in California, but SLI is now partnering with Sify Technologies to offer a course, “PV Design and Installation Training,” online. (“PV” stands for “photovoltaic,” by the way.)
“For over 15 years, the Solar Living Institute has been offering our PV Design and Installation training at our 12-acre sustainability center in Northern California. We are happy to take another stride in our journey toward sustainability not only by going ‘paperless,’ but also by encouraging people to learn more and travel less, saving fossil fuels, time, and money,” says John Schaeffer, SLI’s chairman and founder.
This course is currently only offered in English, but will soon be translated and localized for India, China, and Latin America. SLI and Sify plan to roll out other e-learning courses on subjects such as technical training, sales, marketing, finance, and sustainable personal and business practices.
