GSES solar courses now available in Melbourne and Brisbane

Owing to the overwhelming uptake of its continuous professional development (CPD) courses, Global Sustainable Energy Solutions has added two new locations. From March 2015, GSES ‘PD days’ will also be run in Melbourne and Brisbane, alongside the existing course in Sydney.

The solar industry and its scaled growth over the past five years has seen unprecedented uptake of this technology across all system sizes. How well industry keeps up with the rapid expansion of this technology’s deployment depends on targeted continuous ongoing professional development.

GSES uses its exposure to the solar industry as a consulting and training specialist to identify current information gaps and provide appropriate professional training and information. GSES PD days comprise three professional development courses delivered in a single day of training. The courses covered are: Commissioning, Maintenance and Fault Finding; Responding to Solar Tenders: Technical Content; and PV Module Power Conditioning and Control Devices.

This PD material focuses on practical, up-to-date knowledge, and successful students will receive 115 CPD points for the day’s training that can be used towards Clean Energy Council (CEC) accreditation renewal. Susan Neill, director of GSES, said: “CPD is vital if the industry and its members are going to keep up with rapid technological advances and growing uptake. As competition gets increasingly fierce, those with better knowledge will find it easier to succeed. GSES PD days provide installers a chance to build that knowledge and develop at an appropriate rate to compete.”
