January 10-15, 2022:\u00a0 One week in-person solar course with instructor-led sessions, hands-on labs in Zanesville, Ohio (remote self-paced course and textbook also included)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong>The Residential Solar Installation & Design<\/em> course is sponsored by Zane State College<\/a>.\u00a0 This solar course is a comprehensive learning experience designed to take students with little or no background in electrical systems and\/or solar photovoltaics.<\/p>\n

The course provides solid foundation for those wishing to enter the industry, design and install their own residential PV system, or simply understand how this emerging and important technology works.<\/p>\n

By the end of the course, students should have all the skills necessary to design and install residential-scale solar electric systems.\u00a0 Students will also be certified (assuming you pass the examination) as a Level 1 ETA PV Installer<\/a> \u2013 a credential recognized around the globe.<\/p>\n

So how does the solar course work?<\/em><\/h4>\n

\"\"Online Self-Paced Study:<\/strong>\u00a0 Registered students will have access to the 46-hour + online Residential Solar Installation & Design<\/em> prior to the course dates.\u00a0 This course tracks with the provided textbook (Understanding Photovoltaics<\/a>), and is organized into 11 chapters, 71 major topic areas \u2013 with 11 review quizzes, 25 lab projects, over 550 narrated slides, dozens of integrated videos, links to online resources and materials for added comprehension and more.<\/p>\n

Upon registration, each student will be given access to this program and a copy of the textbook and can begin studying at their own pace.\u00a0 There is a lot of material to cover during a short period of time \u2013 so any advance work prior to class will be helpful.<\/p>\n

Weekly Zoom Sessions:<\/strong>\u00a0 We hold a weekly Zoom call every Tuesday at Noon (called Solar Noon Tuesdays).\u00a0 You are welcome to join to discuss questions you may have or to simply listen to updates and concerns of other students or installers from around the nation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong>Instructor-Led Class:<\/strong>\u00a0 Beginning on Monday January 10th, we will hold face-to-face instructor-led sessions.\u00a0 These sessions will take place from 8 am to around 4:30 pm each day, Monday \u2013 Friday.\u00a0 The lectures will be interspersed with hands-on labs, as there is just so long you can sit in one place.\u00a0 There will be a review session of the week\u2019s content on Saturday morning prior to the certification examination.<\/p>\n

Instructor Availability via E-mail:<\/strong>\u00a0 Often questions arise and can\u2019t wait for the next Zoom meeting.\u00a0 An instructor is available to answer questions via e-mail throughout the course.<\/p>\n

\"\"Hands-On Labs:<\/strong>\u00a0 Throughout the class we will then host course hands-on labs, that provide opportunity to work directly with actual PV systems and also fulfills the hands-on requirements of the ETA PV Level 1 certification.\u00a0 The hands on labs take about 8 hours complete.\u00a0 Students will work in small groups and follow appropriate COVID-19 protocols.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"Certification Examination:<\/strong>\u00a0 We will conduct the certification examination Saturday morning at Zane State College.\u00a0 The examination consists of 75 multiple choice questions (with a 2-hour time limit).\u00a0 Passing score is 75%.<\/p>\n

ETA now offers remote proctoring of their examinations through ExamRoom AI if you are unable to attend the examination in person (or if you need to retake the exam \u2013 one free retake is offered by ETA).\u00a0\u00a0 In this way students can take the examination from their own device, with a live remote proctor monitoring the process.\u00a0 Help is available to walk students through the process of registering for the examination.\u00a0 The certification examination fee ($155 to ETA) is included in your course registration.\u00a0 However you will need to pay the $14 proctoring fee to ExamRoom AI if you choose the remote proctoring option.<\/p>\n
