1 Arial Regular 25pt ARIAL Solar Certification BOLD 60pt Training Learn Solar Installation From the Pros!

2 What s the Hype about Solar? Rising Energy Costs Increased demand for energy Expensive infrastructure to produce power Innovation in Solar Products & Financing Solar products more sleek and efficient Creative financing options for solar installations Need for Alternative Clean Energy Sources Public opinion and Government legislation continues to drive the clean energy movement Consumers are finding more ways to save money Bright future for the solar industry Expected growth of 40-50% in 5 years Narrowing the gap of grid-parity Estimated 100,000 solar jobs to be added next year

3 Solar University SunPro Training Solar University started as a way to train Solar Universe Network Opened SunPro Training to the public in July of 2009 Now offering several solar courses, both online and traditional The SunPro Training Course is a 5-day, 40-hour which combines interactive instruction along with hands-on learning SunPro is Preparation and a prerequisite for the NABCEP EL Exam

4 SunPro Course Curriculum PV solar & electricity basics following NABCEP curriculum guidelines PV design & system interconnection Various hands on exercises Equipment presentations from industry suppliers Fall safety protection NABCEP Entry Level exam prep

5 Hands-On Exercises The following topics are hands-on exercises that are demonstrated in solar training: Live residential PV solar installations Ground mount, flat & small commercial roofs Connecting to inverters, junction boxes, disconnects & load centers Roof penetration & flashing

6 SunPro Instructors & Presenters Instructors Sean White SunPro Installation Training California C-46 Subcontractor s License NABCEP Certified: PV Installation & Sales Michael Flood Solar Universe Operations Electrician by trade Presenters Has performed hundreds of installations Miller Fall Protection Safety demonstration Suntech USA Module overview and warranties PV QuickMount Roof penetrations & flashing Eaton Inverters, BOS & Monitoring

7 IREC Accreditation for EL NABCEP SunPro Training is one of the few IREC accredited training programs Obtain your NABCEP Certification SunPro 40-hour Training Course is prerequisite NABCEP EL Exam is administered at the Solar University Training facility For more information about the NABCEP EL Exam, please visit the following website:

8 SunPro Training Course Prerequisites General understanding of construction, specifically the electrical trades Familiarity using both hand & power Tools Ability to lift 40-pound solar modules & unafraid of heights Desire to learn new skills, and ability to apply them to your current experience

9 What Students Are Saying "Solar Universe gave me the processes and knowledge I needed to further my interests and endeavors related to the solar industry - go green! Russ K. "Solar University's small class sizes, good people and well equipped facility made for a great crash-course in solar installation training. Michael R. "Solar University's training provided me with the valuable information and tools needed for me to decide to pursue a career in the solar industry Erdy M.

10 Why Solar University Training? Learn from Solar Professionals Best practices from the field, not the internet or a textbook Learning and networking with leaders in the solar industry The industry is ever-evolving, solar training should do the same
