Student reviews

Thanks Sean.

This is the best technical course in this field that I have encountered, and I would certainly purchase another.

I've really enjoyed the entire program. I've learned a lot. There is a lot of information, in some areas maybe too much information, but I'll know for sure after the test. It is difficult bc there is a lot of areas that we don't necessarily have to deal with anymore due to software and such. That would be my only area of pause. Other then that, I feel prepared for the test.

Sean is an entertaining presenter which helped keep my interest during the training. The content is great and applicable to what I do everyday. I leave this class feeling more confident in my work and having learned a few things.

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.

I really enjoyed the course. It gave me a lot of confidence heading into my NABCEP test.

If you want to "REALLY" get into this technology, this is a great place to start!

The videos were fun and I knew I could rely on the expertise and knowledge of both Sean and Bill.

Sean White and Bill Brooks are industry experts with deep knowledge on so many aspects of PV design and code compliance. And they somehow manage to make every module interesting, even the trigonometry review module.

Sean is a very knowledge person and responds quickly. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to increase their knowledge in the solar industry!

Great course, very thorough.

Perfect course to acquire a solid base and technical practicality on PV systems. Great instructor with high skills in explanation.

Sean really made the calculations part of the course very easy to understand.

I will be coming back for more quality training!

This is the second time I've taken continuing education credits for renewing my NABCEP license, and the first time taking Sean White's Heatspring course. It has been extremely comprehensive with many deep dives on critical subjects, the depth and breadth of content covered by it is 2nd to none. I will be using Sean White's courses for my CE credits for the foreseeable future and recommend them to anyone looking to do the same.

Recommended course

Before doing this course, I did not much about work safety but having gone through this course I saw the emphasis on safety and the need to apply it in every work environment. So going forward safety is one thing I will consider in every workspace

Sean's ability to communicate with everyone in all of his courses amazes me

Sean's an excellent communicator on all things solar! Whether you're looking to get a foot hold in the industry or advance your career, I highly recommend taking one of Sean's Heatspring courses! I feel more confident in my knowledge and the ability to more effectively communicate the basics of solar PV!

Thanks for taking the time

Instructor was fun and kind. Always messaging back on discussion board posts makes it feel more like a conversation and less of a task

This course is really a down to earth and easily navigable way to introduce and train yourself on the material for the PVTS.

What a great way to brush up on the NEC and solar requirements! Sean's podcast helped me pass the NABCEP the first time, and taking the course for continuing ed has been just as helpful! I know I will go back and listen to some of the materials again as I run into project work that relates.

Comprehensive resource for solar, energy storage, EV and other great topics. Well worth the time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the content of this course and believe I have expanded my knowledge base in the field of PV. Sean was very informative and interactive in the discussion boards. How he can find the time to answer questions I know he's fielded a million times in a personalized tone is beyond me and highly appreciated.

Great job putting this course together. Lots of very good information that gives a very broad overview of solar. I will definitely use this class as a resource while I have access to it.

I would recommend this course to anyone in the industry trying to understand how PV works.

Sean White and Bill Brooks are two of the most talented and experienced people in the solar PV industry; their credentials and accomplishments speak for themselves. I wholeheartedly recommend taking this course, the investment is worth every dollar and second. Like anything in life - The more you put in, the more you get out - But, there is a lot to get here... Take a deep dive into the resources and training provided and you'll be rewarded with significant knowledge and valuable skills. Sincerely, Tom Schoenborne Founder A.R.Technologies, LLC

Nabcep certification and training will put you far above the rest in the Solar industry. Its improved the quality and effective production of my installs. As well as made me a better trainer/leader.

Taking the course at my own pace and having access to the lessons for a year are important to me.

I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COURSE TO ANY ONE, WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE A PV-SOLAR INSTALLER. HAVE NOT SEEN ANYONE WHO DOES THIS, LIKE SEAN WHITE DOES. SO MANY EXAMPLES. SOME ONE OF THESE EXAMPLES MUST BE RECORDED INTO YOUR LONG TERM MEMORY.

Great course! Clear and concise with real world examples.

This course is the best way to gain the CEU's required for NABCEP exam while also gaining the required skill to pass the board exams. The topics covered are vast and extensive material is available to gain relevant experience in PV System design and code knowledge. Recommended for anyone appearing for NABCEP board exams!

Took this course for my NABCEP PV Technical Sales Exam and Re-cert. This course packs all the info into an easy to navigate platform. Super easy to follow along. And if you take your time with it and follow all of Sean's instructions, you are almost certain to pass the exam!

Study hard!

The is by far the best online NABCEP PV Professional Installation prep course. Highly recommended.

Sean is a great instructor and very knowledgeable. He breaks down each questions to help you understand the basics of PV.

waste of money and time.

This course provides me with a good understanding of solar PV Engineering and Installation. I think it was a good investment to take this course. This course helped me to pass the NABCEP Certified PV Installation Professional exam on the first try.

I really liked Dr. White's approach to teaching the different and difficult technical issues encounter in the design, installation and maintenance on a PV system.

I took the NABCEP PV Installer exam this morning and did not feel that it was as difficult as I remembered the NABCEP entry level exam to be. But I did not have the benefit of Sean's teaching back then. No matter what my score on the exam today, I am sure that it will be at least 30 points higher for having taken this course! Thanks Sean!

The course was very helpful for me. It freshed up the rather dry and sometimes boring/ difficult topics of the NEC.

To Whom It May Concern: I searched for online educational options after I committed to study for the NABCEP Professional Installers Certification Exam. I studied daily for 3 months; ie, including weekends. Admittedly, there were multiple instances of frustration and feelings of hopelessness. When you experience, and you will, just persevere. I suspect frustration is normal when trying to learn something new and technical such as solar. My preparation consisted of meticulously reviewing and re-reviewing each of Sean's videos; including completing each practice problem multiple times. I also changed the variables in the problems and solved them for practice. Sean's approach to presenting the content was key in my exam preparation. I found it beneficial extrapolating concepts in his videos and applying them in potential 'real life' circumstances. In addition, Sean's availability and responsiveness was extremely beneficial. He responses were consistently timely and thorough - he is a very valuable resource. Together with Sean's involvement/support and the content of the course, I was well prepared for the exam. Having access to valuable tools (eg, Sean's course) alone will not get the job done. You must commit to put in the necessary time and effort. Though I have a few degrees in science and business, the exam proved to be one of the most challenging I have yet to encounter. Though I passed the exam upon my first attempt, I walked out of the session not really knowing how I did (I guess that, too, is normal). In closing, I highly recommend Sean's course to anyone who is serious about passing the exam. Good luck!

I normally don't do well with online courses, I like being in a classroom better, but this was the best online course I've taken, Sean really knows his stuff.

Sean White is an awesome teacher! His teaching methods are interesting, engaging, fun, informative, and super helpful. I love his down to earth personality and approach, and how he goes step by step through the process. It's a great walk-through for learning how to navigate through the code book - which is a great real world simulation for the exam conditions. Also, I love the handy-dandy calculator short cuts as well as thinking about things such as the test room and state of mind, etc. Plus his sense of humor is an added benefit. I will keep drilling and reviewing the videos and materials, but I feel like I am really ready already. I would highly highly recommend this for anyone planning to sit for the NABCEP exam. In fact, I've been telling some of my coworkers about how great this course is already. Thanks!

I felt very well prepared for the NABCEP Installer Exam after taking this course. The test covers so much material that it is difficult to create a course that touches on everything you may be tested on. This course seems to do that about as well as is possible given the scope and difficulty of the test. Recommended.

Come back to me in 6 weeks, after I find out whether I passed the exam tomorrow (10/22/16)! LOL
