This website provides a wealth of information and resources, but it is no substitute for proper training offered by experienced professionals. Training courses in safety, design, installation, and maintenance should be taken by anyone looking to work with PV systems. Additionally, any course should be appropriate for the location in which it is delivered as practices, standards, equipment, and laws vary by location.
