About the Course:

Safety is paramount in the solar energy industry. This microcredential course, part of our structured Online PV Training Course, equips learners with essential knowledge of PV system safety protocols, focusing on fall hazards, electrical dangers (AC and DC), environmental risks, lifting precautions, and hazardous materials handling. Through immersive VR simulations, learners experience real-world safety challenges, enabling them to prevent accidents and ensure safe PV system installations. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognize fall hazards associated with rooftop and elevated PV system installations.
  • Identify electrical hazards, including DC arcing, fire risks, AC arc flash, and shock hazards.
  • Understand environmental and jobsite hazards, such as uneven terrain and weather conditions.
  • Learn proper techniques for safely lifting heavy PV components.
  • Gain awareness of hazardous materials used in PV installations and their proper handling.

Course delivered via LMS and requires an Oculus VR headset for hands-on VR simulations.
