While we still offer live professional training courses, in September of 2021 we began the process of recording our online classes in order to launch an “on-demand” course feature in 2022. The addition of on-demand training videos through our website was initiated because of feedback we received from our members, some of whom are having trouble attending the times and dates of our current live online course offerings. Courses cost between $125 to $275. Recordings are available to purchase at SolarAlberta.ca and there will be live online courses starting again in the fall of 2022!
