What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: emerging (Level 1)(based on Micro-Credential)

  • Site audit data — collect and document structural, electrical, and environmental measurements under engineer supervision on residential solar project sites.
  • CAD software basics — produce simple electrical single-line diagrams for PV systems following established templates and mentor review.
  • Solar energy fundamentals — apply physics and engineering principles to interpret system specifications within a team-based commercial design environment.
  • Panel schedules — assemble preliminary connection diagrams using CAD tools under direct guidance for entry-level residential installations.
  • Simulation software — execute pre-configured solar PV generation models and record output results for senior-engineer analysis.
  • Technical documentation — read and summarize engineering drawings, codes, and product datasheets relevant to solar energy system components.
  • Design specifications — identify key functional requirements from project briefs and compile supporting data under structured supervision.
  • Installation support — shadow and assist field installation teams during commissioning activities on residential PV projects.
  • Mathematical calculations — apply basic load and energy yield calculations to verify preliminary sizing estimates with guidance.
  • Engineering standards — recognize applicable electrical and building codes relevant to solar system design in a supervised project context.
