A HeatSpring proficiency badge is not a certification or license. HeatSpring proficiency badges demonstrate completion of professional development training and knowledge acquisition.

Badge holders must still obtain appropriate licenses, insurance, and certifications required in their jurisdiction.

HeatSpring reserves the right to revoke badges if holders misrepresent their scope, make false claims about licensing equivalency, or otherwise misuse the credential.

Available Badges: Energy Storage PRO, Solar Service PRO, Building Systems PRO, and Skilled Sales PRO.

Absolutely. You can complete the courses in whichever order makes the most sense for you and your learning journey. 

HeatSpring does make a recommendation for course sequences based on the content of each learning path, but it’s just a suggestion. Feel free to make this program your own!

Individual courses can still be purchased separately, and not all HeatSpring courses are included in PRO.

HeatSpring PRO was designed to maximize your professional development investment. Instead of buying courses one at a time, PRO gives you access to our most in-demand content across four critical specializations - delivering tons of value while building comprehensive expertise in the areas that matter most for your career advancement.

The final exam becomes available once you've completed all courses in your learning path. Here's what to expect:

Exam Structure

• 50 questions total
• 80% passing score required
• Questions change with each attempt (you won't see the exact same exam twice)

If You Don't Pass After three unsuccessful attempts, there's a mandatory one-week study period before you can retake the exam. Use this time to review the courses that were most challenging for you, then return refreshed and ready for your next attempt.

No, your badges don't expire. We'll host your verified badge page as long as you have an active PRO subscription. If you cancel your subscription, the badge page won't be publicly visible, but don't worry - if you rejoin PRO later, all your badges will be restored and waiting for you.

You'll have access to all PRO courses and content as long as your PRO subscription is active. When your subscription expires, access to PRO content ends immediately.

Good news: You can cancel anytime, and if you decide to rejoin later, we'll remember your progress. All your completed courses, badges, and learning history will be restored and waiting for you.

You can easily cancel your PRO subscription anytime directly from your account page.

If you have a monthly subscription, cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle.

If you have an annual subscription and cancel early, you'll retain full access to HeatSpring PRO through the end of your prepaid year. This ensures you get maximum value from your investment and can continue learning and earning badges until your subscription term expires. Annual subscriptions are non-refundable and not prorated.

No, team discounts don't apply to individual PRO subscriptions. PRO is already priced as an incredible value with access to 15+ premium courses, verified proficiency badges, and expert content.
