Solar PV Systems Technician Certificate
NEW CLASSES START JANUARY 19th
ENROLL AND APPLY FOR FINANCIAL-AID NOW!
Are you interested in starting a new career in a fast-growing, rapidly developing industry? Colorado’s “Green Economy” is expected to grow by leaps and bounds over the next few years.
The Solar PV Systems Technician certificate has been designed with input from industry partners across the Denver Metro region. Classes are offered in a 10-week format to meet your needs for getting into the workforce.
First, you will get a handle on the basics of energy – what is energy? Where does it come from? How is energy distributed? – along with some basic math that is needed for jobs in the renewable energy industry. Next, you will learn practical skills to become a safe, competent entry-level technician for a photovoltaic (PV) dealer, installer or contractor.
You will learn both in the classroom and by building a solar voltaic system and installing it in our Renewable Energy Laboratory.
Women and second-career students are WELCOME! Financial aid is available.
