Via to the Innovationsprogramm für Geschäftsmodelle und Pionierlösungen awarded by the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action, greentech.training has been awarded funding to bring the Solar Technician – Light Commercial and Residential training program to Germany.  Developed in partnership with InnoEnergy, the new accreditation has been designed to be both a specialisation to those with prior qualifications as well as a pre-qualification for those seeking work in the solar sector. 

With training expected start in Q3, 2025, it will be a free month-long intensive training program open to 25 applicants living in Germany aged over 18 with at least a strong CEF A2 level of German. For non-native German speakers, we offer a preparatory technical German language course that incorporates all the terms to be taught in the subsequent practical training. We are now accepting applications from industry partners to co-launch the program.
