LA CleanTech Solar Installer Training Classes
Solar Installer Training (Entry‐Level Solar Electric Systems) classes are available at the Region 4 Louisiana Technical College, Lafayette Campus. The Solar Energy Installer training is being offered by Louisiana CleanTech Network (LCTN) in conjunction with the Region 4 Louisiana Technical College, Lafayette Campus.
Classes will be offered as necessary. Attendance of classes will complete the NABCEP Learning Objectives and includes extensive hands on training and on‐the job‐training.
This course is based on the NABCEP PV Entry Level Certificate of Knowledge program. This program is designed for those individuals wanting to get into the solar field and will be a way for them to show that they have achieved basic knowledge, comprehension and application of key terms and concepts of photovoltaic (solar electric) system operations. The certificate will demonstrate that the student has passed an industry-designed exam based on learning objectives developed by subject matter experts.
As the market grows for photovoltaics, students holding this industry-sponsored NABCEP PV Entry Level Certificate of Knowledge could find that their employment opportunities are enhanced by starting the job with an understanding of the basic terms and operational aspects of a PV system. However, the NABCEP Certificate of Knowledge by itself does not qualify an individual to install PV systems.
Taking the NABCEP COK exam after the completion of the course is optional. There is an additional fee for the NABCEP COK exam, and registration with NABCEP is required. Only students who complete the course and pass the NABCEP COK exam will receive the NABCEP Photovoltaic (PV) Entry Level Certificate of Knowledge. Students who pass the course but elect not to take the NABCEP COK exam will receive a Louisiana CleanTech Network Certificate of Training
Each three day class will include 24 hours of class instruction and hands on training. This 48 hour training program will teach the NABCEP‐issued PV Entry Level Installer Certificate of Knowledge Learning Objectives and will prepare students for the NABCEP PV Entry Level Installer Certificate of Knowledge test. Upon the completion of the 48 hour training program all students will be able to apply for the NABCEP PV Entry Level Installer Certificate of Knowledge test that will be given at a future date. All students must be present for a minimum of 40 hours of class time to submit an application to NABCEP.
The cost of the complete training class is $1400. Training costs must be paid in advance. Please call or e‐mail to make arrangements to register and pay the fees.
