Program details

Overview

This Micro-Credential provides you with foundational training in the physical installation of Photovoltaic (PV) systems. It includes theoretical learning covering PV components, safety planning, and installation best practices for various roof types. The program concludes with a full-day, hands-on session at Camosun’s Clean Energy and Efficient Buildings (CEEB) Lab, where you will apply your knowledge by assembling PV systems on flat and sloped roof mock-ups.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This ProSIT micro-credential builds on two earlier courses in Camosun's Photovoltaic Installation & Design sequence: its stated prerequisites are completion of Introduction to Clean Energy (CEEB 150V) and Introduction to Photovoltaics (CEEB 152V). No secondary-school course, grade average, or English-language test score is published as a separate requirement; the sequence page notes the credential is aimed at trades, professionals, and individuals interested in solar installation work. Registration runs through Camosun's ProSIT continuing-education system, not the EducationPlannerBC application used for credit programmes, and the page describes no portfolio, interview, or other supporting document beyond proof of the two prerequisite courses.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through EducationPlannerBC for Camosun's open-enrolment programmes: for Fall 2027 (September) applications open 1 October 2026 with an early deadline of 15 May 2027 for priority registration and a late deadline of 26 August 2027; Winter 2027 (January) runs 15 September 2026 to 7 January 2027, and Summer 2027 (May) 15 January 2027 to 29 April 2027. Limited-enrolment programmes publish only an opening date and can close once the waitlist exceeds the seats on offer. International applicants must submit a complete application by 1 June (Fall), 1 October (Winter) or 1 February (Summer), though later applications are still reviewed while seats remain, making admission effectively rolling for both groups once the early deadlines pass. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
