    NABCEP PV certification is offered at Appalachian State University ( http://www.appstate.edu/ ), I just took the one that was offered in May for entry level certification....there were folks from as far away as Indiana there. It was a two weekend course....Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday all day.

    They have another coming up this fall......and there is a REAL good one day course in July ( 18th I think ) on PV and the NECode.....taught by the guy that writes the Code Corner in Home Power magazine, John Wiles.....probably worth your driving up for.

    Contact Dr. Dennis Scalin at Appy State for more info:
