Which show are you referring to, NABCEP or ULU? Peter T. Parrish, Ph.D., President
Both and our industry in general. Remember we are all the bozos on this bus. Solar is the new "Golden Goose" read that as "Green Goose". This industry is getting folks piling on by the boat load at present and I for one am delighted for the expansion and shocked at the directions that our industry is reeling in. It is partially very adolescent and partially fear based mostly due to [in my view] people jumping into something that holds promise as a lot of folks are losing their homes and having to learn a new trade [licensed Electricians & Plumbers included]. I had this transition imagined as smoother and more gradual than it has been. It is a brave new world here.

Underwriters Laboratories Announces Personnel Certification Program for Solar Photovoltaic System Installers 26.04.2010: Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a global leader in safety testing and certification, announced today the introduction of a new program to train and certify installers of photovoltaic (PV) products and systems. The program, available beginning July 2010 through UL University (ULU), represents the first of many the organization will provide for practitioners across a wide range of industries and professions. The PV System Installer certification program was created to meet and exceed existing industry requirements through a working cooperation with leading PV industry stakeholders, NGOs and professional associations. The new offering from ULU, geared towards licensed electricians, aims to satisfy a need to improve the safety and performance of PV systems through a more qualified workforce. With solar power expected to generate 10 percent of the world's total electricity by 2035, the safety of installed systems will become even more important. .
