Student reviews

Would prefer to be anonymous: The instructor was very knowledgeable and engaging and the self paced format allowed me to work at my own pace and let the information sink in.

Every professional looking to take their understanding of solar past learning by rote needs this education.

As someone who has some experience with installation, but who is still learning, this course really helped make sense of the National Electric Code and brought my understanding to a whole different level. In addition to all of the materials, having access to Sean via the discussion forum where you can ask any questions you can think up was also really valuable. I'm feeling much more prepared to take the NABCEP exam than I was when I started.

My knowledge of PV design has increased immensely by taking this course. I would suggest it to anyone pursuing a career in Solar.

If you're just starting out in Solar PV or are switching your career path to solar, this course is going to give you the real info that people in the solar industry deal with every day, AND help you pass the N.A.B.C.E.P. P.V.I.P. exam.

Great in depth information and a little fun along the way. It's clear that Mr. White has a real passion for solar and has genuine experience in the industry.

I am really happy I took this course because without it I would not have qualified to take a NABCEP test. Now I can take my PVS exam and after I get experience in the field I can take the PVIP exam.

A VERY in-depth and detailed course that will enable you to become knowledgeable and confident within the PV industry. This is an incredible tool and resource (the only one you'll likely need) to prepare for the NABCEP PVIP exam! There is a plethora of extra/additional content that supplements the core material to prepare for the NABCEP PVIP exam. Sean White and Bill Brooks are not only guru's, been in the industry for decades, but also help write the NEC code that this course prepares you to be examined. Great teaching style to help lighten the material. Thank you Sean!

Excellent course. Clearly taught by a very knowledgable teacher. I am preparing for the NABCEP PVIP exam and this was the perfect study guide. Many practice exams with the answers explained in great detail. The ability to work at my own pace but still having instructor feedback and responses makes for a very convenient and smooth learning process. If you are preparing for any NABCEP exam, this course is a must.

watch the videos as mach as you need to understand as much as you can, and to at least navigate the NEC fast and effectively

I would highly recommend this course for an intensive detail of everything you should know about solar.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone who needs to prepare for the NABCEP exam. Although I am a master electrician I am relatively new to the solar industry and found the advanced material in the course to be clearly presented and easy to understand. The practice exams and the explanation videos to the questions on the practice exams were so valuable in helping me gain the knowledge to be able to pass the NABCEP exam and also help in the field with installs and maintenance!

I passed my test the first time because of Sean's classes and books

This is a great course to prepare for the NABCEP professional exam. It has deepened my understanding of solar, electric, and the NEC, and has not only prepared me for the exam, but has also grown me to do my job better. It's great that you can go at your own pace, you gain valuable knowledge without constant pressure of deadlines. Sean is a great teacher, and this is a great course.

The Heatspring Advanced PV course is great. There is a large amount of material provided, covering all the exam objectives. Sean and Bill present the material in an often entertaining manner, which helped keep me interested and engaged, so I could learn and retain the knowledge I needed. It definitely was key to helping me pass the exam.

The course goes way beyond just learning about solar. All the additional information related to our craft made me feel like I got more than my money’s worth.

I found Sean's instruction to be very valuable and an enjoyable way to learn what I need to know while going for the NABCEP PV Installer exam.

Though I am designing the Solar PV system for residential and commercial since 8 years, this course made me mode so confident and more accurate design. I recommend to take this course who are in and thinking to come in PV sector.

I would recommend this course for anyone looking to obtain certification. I have taken other courses and they do not have the detailed explanations that this course covers. Also Sean's knowledge as an electrician speaks volumes.

I would strongly recommend Sean's course(s) to anyone looking to advance their knowledge about solar. His courses are very well designed to create a learning experience that makes you think about and understand each topic very well.

Thanks so much for the class I hope it helps me pass the test

Highly recommended! Sean's humor, industry experience and insight made covering the material very manageable.

A very thoroughly explained prep resource to take the NABCEP. So grateful I invested and took the class. Not only am I more confident to tackle the NABCEP exam, I have a year access to the materials so I can really solidify my knowledge and confidence. Thank you so much! Can't wait to crush the exam!!!

I enjoyed this course so much I'm already reaching out to try and get a program together to get all my employees NABCEP certified.

The Heatspring NABCEP training has been the best professional online training I have seen, particularly for a subject as involved and lengthy as Solar PV and the NEC.. Many, Many Thanks, I'm sure I'll see you guys again! -RRF

Heatspring did a great job making Sean White the instructor for this course. His explanation are very clear and understandable. I have a strong feeling I am going to A's this exam.

thank you for your help

Great course by a great instructor.

You will be known inAfrica before you visit. I will be your marketing guy. Love you man.

An excellent course wherein I began with a beginner, associate's knowledge of topics to now having confidence with advanced topics. The instructor, Sean White, is a treasure trove of knowledge, experience and insight and his method is as upbeat as it is complete.

Don't hesitate to take this course, I really learned a lot. Very very recommended.

Dr. White's course is extremely effective for NABCEP exam preparation not only in that the teaching style & course content made it easy to understand, but also that the integrated community participation/instructor communication enables students to reinforce concepts based on their specific learning style. Having students publicly post real-world questions and scenarios further expands on the content and clarifies unique circumstances. Dr. White's timely and encompassing responsiveness to student queries also serves as a desirable characteristic that would be welcome in any classroom whether on the web or in person.

The course has been very helpful.

I am an Electrical Engineer, and have been using the code book for quite a while, yet this is the first time I have clearly understood some of the unclear parts of the code book.

Sean is an extremely detail oriented and experienced PV professional with a natural aptitude for teaching. Any time I had questions, we was extremely prompt in his responses which shows his dedication to seeing you make it through. Between these traits and his syntactic course delivery method, this course has been essential in sharpening me up prior to writing my NABCEP PVIP exam. Thanks Sean!

This is a great preparation for solar professional work and the NABCEP exam. You will enjoy Sean's presentation and sense of humor. You cover a lot in a short amount of time.

Even though I work in the solar industry daily and focus on this material on a regular basis, I have been hesitant, and maybe a little intimidated to take the PVIP exam. This course has both exposed me to the concepts and applications that I don't regularly see in the field, and has given me a more robust understanding of theory, code, and design. It has given me more confidence in my daily work and compelled me to expand my knowledge base for further personal development.

I've not taken the exam yet, so I can't say how well the material is represented on the exam. But the material in the textbook and online course was thoroughly covered in a way that I feel I understand it all now.

Sean White does an excellent job of breaking down the NEC code and making it understandable. You will come out of the course with a wealth of new knowledge and with a confidence to take on the NABCEP exam!

What I thought i knew about solar was nothing, I've learned so much that I believe i'm now prepared for the industry and now won't make those common mistakes made in the field.

I highly recommend heat spring course by Dr. Sean White for PV advanced training. Please watch every second of the course videos and keep in touch with Dr. White. I feel lucky to have him as my instructor for this course.

Sean has a very thorough and well organized self pace course for the NABCEP professional exam. He is very responsive to any question you may have.

I recommend taking this course to anyone looking to prepare for the NABCEP or expand their PV understanding. Sean's knowledge and experience is vast and evident throughout this course. It was a privilege to learn from one of the best!

I definitely recommend the course. It is worth the $!

I would highly recommend this advanced PV course for anyone serious about the work they perform on a day-to-day basis. The knowledge and tips of the trade are hard to find - with much controversy - yet this course does a great job summarizing and helping you think.
