Championing all solar professionals and their work
The site is open to all solar professionals, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, gender, age, disability, or skill level that agree to follow the code of conduct and student honor system.
I've been working in renewable energy training for the building trades since 2006 and have developed training and training software for tens of thousands of solar PV professionals and solar companies. In 2023 I created Waivolt, an Oregon benefit company, to help solar professionals get NABCEP Certified. In 2024 Waivolt merged with Rose City Robotics of which I am a co-founder and CEO.
Operating with trust, integrity and open transparency
All students must read and agree to our code of conduct and student honor system, as well as agree to follow any applicable professional standards of conduct such as the NABCEP code of ethics.
We only work with course developers who are IREC Certified Master Trainers and have signed and pledged to follow the IREC code of ethics. They are also NABCEP Certified PV Installation Professionals and follow the NABCEP code of ethics.
Working to help to solve the climate crisis
Passion is critical in a good life and good work. It's incredibly rewarding to work for something positive. The challenge can be scary and sometimes overwhelming but knowing we are working together and supporting each other gives us strength. There is amazing work being done every day and we want to be part of it.
