Advance your career in the solar industry. Attend solar training or learn online at your own pace through an online instructor mentored course.

One of the things I would like to pursue in 2010 is training. I have taken one of the online courses offered by Solar Energy International out of Paonia, Colorado and found it to be well thought out and thorough. However, I am very much a 'hands-on' learner, and would like to get on the roof and be involved in an installation. Given my role in the industry, it is important to me to be well versed in the common problems, and solutions, that installers encounter on a day to day basis.
If cost was not a factor, what course or courses would you recommend? Location of the course is not as important to me as overall quality.
Looking forward to your recommendations, thanks for reading!

The online solar training course is self paced, and most students finish in 4-7 weeks.The total time is about 40-60 hours.It recognize that most online courses are notoriously boring, and that many students do not finish them. So we designed a fun, interactive, online solar training course about the design & installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. The class is enhanced with interactive animations, quick quizzes, excercises, real-world experiments and video clips! We also include an entire solar kit with real solar PV cells, DC motors and multi-meter.

But are the online solar training courses prove beneficial ?

One the best group which is providing a training on solar pv, photovoltaic training, solar pv installation and many more...
