Solar Canada
Registered Provider PVARTP-0877
Everything we run, with the fee beside it. Canadian dollars, taxes extra. The four courses that are open take you straight to enrolment and payment — no form, no call-back. The rest are being scheduled, and those are the only ones with a form behind them.
Thirty-two hours across four live days, covering every NABCEP PV Associate job-task domain. Six chapters, thirty-two lessons, taught live so you can ask questions.
The same body of knowledge, recorded. Twenty-two chapters and 249 lessons, with twelve months of access. Begin the day you enrol, from any country.
Not a question list — every single question is worked through on video. About fifteen hours of practice, and the cheapest thing on this page that changes a result.
An hour with an instructor, online, on whatever you are stuck on. Booked directly into a time that suits you.
One fee covering the NABCEP examination fee, reserving your exam, and confirming your appointment with the proctor. You pick the date.
The two tickets a solar site asks to see before it lets you on a roof. Being scheduled now — tell us you want it and we will put you on the list.
Licensing, filing, quoting, supply, coverage area and how to get in front of public procurement. The part nobody teaches.

Three steps, and you can stop after any of them.
Or pick none. If you already install, you may only need the exam.
Four live days, or at your own pace over twelve months. Everything runs online today; in-person classes are arranged by region once enough people ask.
Remotely proctored, or at a test centre. NABCEP sets and scores it, not us.
Associate Provider: yes · Accredited Provider: yes
Solar Canada is listed in NABCEP’s own provider directory as an Associate Provider and an Accredited Provider for the Photovoltaic Associate programme, under provider number PVARTP-0877. You do not have to take our word for any of that — the link is right there.
NABCEP® and the NABCEP marks are the property of the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners, Inc. Solar Canada is a Registered Provider (PVARTP-0877) and is not otherwise affiliated with, or endorsed by, NABCEP. NABCEP sets, delivers and scores its own examinations; no provider, including this one, can influence a result.
When our courses and exams run, and what else is on in the industry.
Almost nobody in this market publishes theirs. We do, so you can compare before you call.
Every course runs online, so time zone is the only thing to arrange. In-person classes are set up by region when enough people want the same dates — ask and we will add you.
Train wherever you like and still sit here, for the same fee as our own students.
The examination fee, reserving your exam and confirming your proctor appointment are all inside it. You pick the date; the instructions come by email.

Three questions. It will tell you when the answer is “none of them”.

They cost us sales. They are still true, and you would find them out afterwards anyway.
NABCEP sets, delivers and scores its own examinations, and it does not require any particular course — including ours. Training raises what you know. It cannot move a cut score.
Being a NABCEP Registered Provider means we are authorised to deliver accredited training and submit exam rosters properly. In the exam itself it is worth nothing.
The professional certifications — Installation Professional, Design Specialist and the rest — require documented installation experience that no classroom substitutes for.
Ours are on this page and on the pricing page, the same for everyone, updated when they change.
And one structural thing: Solar Canada trains, it does not issue credentials, and it does not sit on the body that would. An exam seat here is priced and scheduled identically for candidates who trained somewhere else — a testing centre that favours its own students is not a testing centre. How the exam centre works →
The open courses enrol in two clicks and need nothing from us. This is for everything else — a course that is not scheduled yet, an in-person class in your region, a group booking, or a question. You get a reference number on screen straight away.
