Alexandria, VA (October 1, 2019) – Solar Energy Trade Shows, LLC (SETS), the team behind SPI, ESI, and North America Smart Energy Week, announced a new expanded partnership with Solar Energy International (SEI) to implement installer training content across select events within the Solar Power Events portfolio.
As the solar industry is expanding, so too are the job opportunities. With solar installer jobs not only representing the largest share of employment, but additionally being the fastest growing occupation in the U.S., adding a key installer focus throughout all events is necessary.
“Our goal is to promote a strong, growing renewable energy industry and provide installer educational content in markets we serve,” said Gary Thuro, Chief Marketing & Sales Officer, Solar Energy Trade Shows. “Working with SEI was an obvious choice.”
Solar Power Events, the premier events series for the North American solar & storage markets, is presented by Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) & Smart Electric Power Alliance (SEPA). Alongside SPI, ESI, and North America Smart Energy Week, which is the largest gathering of solar, smart energy, energy storage and hydrogen fuel cell professionals in North, Solar Power Events provides an extensive portfolio of regional events featuring a robust education program vetted by industry experts, and ample networking opportunities at every show.
“We are very excited to grow our partnership with SETS as the exclusive solar training partner and education provider not only for the Solar Power International Conference, but also through regional conferences held all throughout the year. This expanded partnership will help drive our industry forward and take it to the next level,” said Chris Turek, Director of Marketing and Communications, Solar Energy International. “With a shared vision of a world powered by renewable energy, SETS and SEI have teamed up to ensure the clean energy workforce is thriving with highly trained and technologically prepared solar practitioners worldwide.”
Solar Energy International provides industry-leading technical training and expertise in renewable energy and has over 70,000 students and alumni worldwide and over 500 years of combined solar industry experience within SEI’s team of instructors and solar advocates.
“We will be able to bring world class education and training not only to conferences and events provided by SETS, but also create a continuous professional development loop by offering solar professionals ongoing training and career support in between conferences and events,” Mr. Turek continued. “Participants will be able to connect with SEI not only during SETS conferences, but also through SEI’s Online Campus and our hands-on lab training facility in Paonia, Colorado. We look forward to a bright, sunny future with this partnership with SETS!”
