I started this journey ten years ago when I took the PVIP after being in the trade for 3 years and failed. I waited another 10 years before trying again and passed with more knowledge.
The truth is I don't like studying. But with this course and the need to improve myself in my professional life, I am learning to study, concentrate and give my best. I hope I can pass the exam that is my goal
What a great course! Sean White delivers some great introductory knowledge for solar professionals that want to take the next step in their careers or for anyone interested in learning more about PV solar. 11/10!
Looked for a class that gave me the necessary knowledge and a good guide to study. The practice exam and explanations are a great learning tool!
Sean White and Bill Brooks explain things well and are very reponsive to to questions during the course. Very recommended course to take.
This is the best course for solar that you can get. I started last year as a laborer, worked my way as a technician and now I am a field manager due to this course. I use the information every day on our job sites, I feel confident with what I know and the results show in our arrays.
This course is full of useful information, sure to increase your working knowledge of PV systems and their installation. Sean's approach helps to retain dense material with humor and in depth explanations. I'm thankful that this is the path I took towards my NABCEP PVIP certification.
This course really helped guide me in my studies and provided a lot of new information. I am very eager to take the exam now.
It was an honor to take a course with the greatest snowboarder of all time
The video course was made very well, with plenty of practice exam questions and good explanations of the material
I've taken a lot of online classes, and this course is the best I've ever taken. Sean really takes the time to thoroughly explain course material and is very responsive on the discussion board. I have no doubts that I will pass the PVIP exam on my first attempt. Thanks Sean!
If you want to level up in the solar industry, there is no better way to do it than to become a NABCEP PVIP. If you want to study for the PVIP exam, there is no place better to do that than HeatSpring.
Sean and Bill are excellent resources for PV professionals of all levels of expertise.
Yep.
This course was great because of the enthusiasm of the instructor (Sean White). It makes a huge difference in keeping things interesting.
If youre studying for your PVIP exam, this is the one for you!
This course is very informative, engaging and easy to follow. Sean Keeps your attention through the entire thing!
Whether your new to the solar industry or a seasoned solar veteran in need of a refresher course, this 18-Hour Solar PV Bootcamp provides a plethora of a great information to fast-track your continued solar education.
this is a great class and an effective way to learn about solar. thank you Sean and HeatSpring.
Great course with a lot of technical information that has expanded my knowledge and abilities in the solar industry.
This course is a must-take for anyone starting their journey in the solar industry! I wish the solar EPC I work at made me take this in the first month after I was hired.
Engaging and entertaining course that is a great entry point into the solar power + energy storage world. I am an energy systems engineer with career experience and I still learned a lot. The Associate course is an awesome choice for anyone that wants to work in this high-demand and growing field. Highly recommended!
I've learned a ton of core knowledge from this course. Personally, the handbook 'Solar PV Engineering and Installation' by Sean White is an absolute must for walking through this course with it in hand.
Comparing my knowledge prior to taking this course to after completion, I feel I have gained much and am in a much better position to take the PVIP exam.
Prior to taking the course I had very limited knowledge of PV and how it is supposed to function. My limited experience was field level installation without any theory. This course in just 18hours has explained many things about PV that I had no prior understanding of. In a very short amount of time my knowledge of PV application/installation has increased dramatically.
I am so glad I dedicated the time and expenses for this course. I struggled with the best way to study for the NABCEP and I feel this really keeps one on track and focused. Great course, great instructor and great material!
I took this course in preparation for the PVIP exam 40-hr prep course. Even with years of Solar installation experience, I learned a tremendous amount from this entry-level course. I feel as though it has filled in the gaps of my knowledge of solar design, installation, and use. This is a great foundation for anyone in the industry, and I am confident in building up to more advanced material from here.
ok
This BOOT Camp was a very good introduction to the solar PV. I now am more comfortable regarding the initial stage of system design and performance estimation.
As a 15-year veteran of the residential solar business, this course was valuable to me for clarifying and reinforcing the "Why" and "How" behind all the "What" I've learned to do over the years. Never too late to learn more, and I'm looking forward to taking (and passing!) the PVIP exam and adding the NABCEP cert to my name and my business. Get started in solar on the right foot with the right knowledge, or build on what you know and move to the next step of expertise and value. More solar, yes, and especially MORE SOLAR DONE RIGHT.
A great course second to none. It seems long but there is so much to get through. A must for PV installers
I absolutely love the way Sean does his lectures. The funny explanations and side notes are great. If all college/other courses were the same way, it would be soooo much easier to stay engaged!
Sean's PVIP course was crucial in preparing for the exam. Despite how complicated the material and process of the exam is, Sean does an excellent job of breaking down all the different sections and making the entire process clear and understandable. His responsiveness to discussion board posts also allowed any confusion or questions to be quickly resolved.
very funny guy, the course is long and technical but Shawn was able to handle it and make it a bit fun.
As a licensed master electrician. I didn't need the NEC over view, Im pretty sure I can thumb my way around the code book.
well this is great help.
I would confidently walk out of the 18 hours with a much better idea of the solar industry, and be sure that I could work in the industry knowing what I have learnt is useful in the field.
Sean White is awesome and his enthusiasm for solar power is unmatched!
Thanks Sean.
The Heatspring Solar PV 40-hour Advanced Certification Training was a crucial resource for leveling up my knowledge in the quickly developing solar industry. I am far more confident in my work as a solar operations lead, and can apply it in many different areas throughout the industry. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is taking their training seriously and wants to pursue a career in solar.
This online course is the best of both worlds. The videos allow you to work at your own pace, but the instructor is always able to be reached and is very eager to answer questions or just talk solar.
I had prior experience with both selling solar and installing solar, so I wasn't sure how impactful this course would be. I was immediately impressed with the course layout and educational approach of Mr. White. I picked up a ton on the electrical side of the process and installation. I was mainly on the roof, not in the panel, so it helped a great deal. Again, I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to get into solar.
Great course, great instructors, up to date materials, and enjoyable.
I would have no chance of passing this exam without this course. The practice exams and explanations are great ways to make sure I'm accurately applying the information I'm learning. I passed the first practice exam I took, which really reduced my fear and stress surrounding the exam. Super grateful for the information I learned!
