Solar PV Systems Installation

This microcredential provides foundational knowledge and hands-on training in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, with a focus on installing solar panels and related components. Learners explore renewable energy fundamentals, gain practical experience with PV equipment, and apply essential safety practices. Training includes interactive simulations, safety demonstrations, and work-integrated learning (WIL) opportunities with solar contractors, allowing learners to apply their skills on real projects under the supervision of licensed electrical professionals. Designed for skilled trades professionals*, this microcredential prepares learners for career opportunities in solar installation. Areas of Study: - Introduction to Solar Photovoltaic Systems - Solar Photovoltaic Systems Installation *Note: Admission requirements may vary based on provincial regulations; in New Brunswick, Electrician certification is required by industry.
