What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

  • Engineering site audits — conduct complete structural and electrical assessments for residential and small commercial solar projects with minimal oversight.
  • PV system design — develop system component selections and layout configurations for standard residential installations using CAD and simulation tools.
  • Solar thermal systems — design basic solar thermal configurations, specifying components and integration points for commercial building applications.
  • Electrical diagrams — create accurate single-line diagrams, panel schedules, and connection drawings for PV systems using CAD software with routine peer review.
  • Performance simulation — run and interpret computer simulations of PV generation systems to compare design alternatives and improve energy output estimates.
  • Technical writing — produce engineering reports, design narratives, and specification documents for recurring project types with limited revision cycles.
  • Installation guidance — provide on-site technical direction to installation crews during start-up and testing phases of familiar project types.
  • Specification review — evaluate supplier and subcontractor specifications against design requirements and recommend standard engineering adjustments.
  • Design planning — draft solar energy system development and monitoring plans aligned with project schedules and client objectives.
  • Cross-functional coordination — collaborate with architects, contractors, and utility representatives to resolve routine design integration issues.
