How it works
02 — Program structure
One shape for every program: four modules, eight units.
Whichever discipline you choose, the path is the same — fundamentals first, deployment last.
MODULE 01
Fundamentals
The science and safety beneath the discipline — principles, terminology and the rules that keep work safe.
MODULE 02
Systems & design
Components, sizing and configuration — how a working system is specified and laid out.
MODULE 03
Installation
Mounting, wiring, commissioning and the field practice that turns a design into a live installation.
MODULE 04
Integration
Maintenance, fault diagnosis, grid and hybrid integration — readiness to deploy and support anywhere.
Short courses
