Sean White and Bill Brooks explain things well and are very reponsive to to questions during the course. Very recommended course to take.
Sean White is an excellent instructor. I highly recommend his courses.
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.
I always go to Heatspring for renewable education. These guys know it better than anyone!
I really enjoyed this course. It helped me to get a flavor for how far things have come, as well as how far they will go. Very applicable to real life, and will be used regularly!
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.
The instructor has a way to keep you awake and makes a complicated topic interesting.
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.
I have taken a number of Sean White's courses, and they have all been excellent. He is able to break down the complexities of the subject matter into terms that are easy to comprehend. Great Trainer!
This course provide me the CEU's necessary to maintain my NABCEP credentials. One of the reasons I selected this course was to gain additional industry knowledge. I was pleased with time spent and the purchase value which far exceeds other education platforms I have experienced that resulted in more of a check the box type of CEU's with little educational value. Thanks for a well written course.
The video course was made very well, with plenty of practice exam questions and good explanations of the material
A spoonful of Sean White helps the NEC go down.
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.
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.
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!
ok
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
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.
This was a great course and I will be taking more of Sean's classes very consistently as I move through the industry.
very funny guy, the course is long and technical but Shawn was able to handle it and make it a bit fun.
I highly recommend this course to get an introduction into energy storage for those who are trying to obtain more knowledge or join this industry.
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.
If you are wondering if this course is worth the cost, it is. You will walk away from this with 100% confidence in your knowledge base. I would not have passed my NABCEP pro and inspector without the courses from Sean and Bill
I recommend Sean's course to anyone in the solar/energy storage field. Whether you are new or a season vet, this course will help you understand solar and energy storage at a deeper level.
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!
This course is better served to advanced PV students that have some formal education
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.
I found this course as well as previous heatspring courses useful in obtaining and maintaining my NABCEP certification.
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.
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!
I won't know how effective the course is until I take the exam.
This course is not only good for getting the NABCEP PVIP. It also prepares you to pass electrical exams for Master, or Journeyman. I highly recommend this course.
Sean White was an extraordinary instructor with a wealth of knowledge and an ability to illustrate his knowledge in a way that is understandable and not over the head of the average student,
Great course from Sean!
Students : We do not learn , we ABSORB ! The key is repetitiveness !
I highly recommend this NABCEP PVIP training course by Sean White/Bill Brooks. I have really learned alot and nothing beats direct training from industry experts with in depth knowledge/experience of the NEC and what's required for passing NABCEP Exams...so get enrolled!!!
Hip Hip horray!
Would prefer to be anonymous: The instructor was very knowledgeable and engaging and the self paced format allowed me to work at my own pace and let the information sink in.
If you want a good mix of high-level information about energy storage systems, as well as a deep dive into what makes them tick, then this is the course for you! Would highly recommend for professionals who are in the installation/implementation space or even in the development space if you are just looking to learn more about energy storage. My brain hurts after this course, but in a good way!
