I successfully renewed my NABCEP PVIP certification, mostly with equipment manufacturer-supplied certificates I had received over the last 3 years. To make up the shortfall, I took three free, decent courses from Heatspring and the $89 NEC 2023 course from MikeHolt.com.
The Sales Ethics course from HeatSpring is a must-watch for all solar sales reps. I found the Mike Holt 8-hour course very good. The videos of panel discussions were worth watching, and helped easily fulfill the CEU requirement. I will mention that there are lots of quizzes in this course, so you have to be actively engaged, but the answers are mostly common sense (for us). Hope to see you in Milwaukee this year, where I hope to knock out most of my 2029 CEUs! Thanks, all, for your recommendations.
