Teaching & Training
We offer a variety of online and onsite training courses, workshops and lectures. We also offer hands-on training for real world experience. High-quality training combining the theory and practice is our priority. The GIEE team includes the industries top engineers holding at least M.S. degree to guarantee the quality.
We offer private training and education for individuals, organizations and companies. You have the option to choose the location and time that fit your schedule.
Education and training events are offered in three ways:
Certification
GIEE certification is one of most recognized and highly respected professional accreditation in the electrical engineering and renewable energy field. It demonstrates professional competence in the field of electric power systems and renewable energy, and gives employers and customers a degree of certainty that you have voluntarily met the high standards and qualifications set by us.
GIEE certification programs require the meeting of specific educational and/or experience criteria, as well as the passing of a written and/or online examination.
We offer certification programs and exams; and here is one of these programs:
GIEE Certified Solar Electrical Engineer Program (CSEE)
The GIEE CSEE training program is a comprehensive training experience over 17 weeks (115 hrs) to equip you to become a specialist in photovoltaic industry and grid integration.
The program includes classroom learning (online-live/onsite), tutorials and hands-on training taught by experienced instructors and seasoned solar energy professionals (professors & Engineers) who are committed to starting a rewarding career in the high-growth solar energy industry.
The program provides comprehensive knowledge and practical applications of photovoltaic (solar electric) system operations, including installation, design, financing and business aspects of managing a PV project. It also provides comprehensive knowledge of integration of distributed energy resources to the electric grid by studying and analyzing the impact and solutions of this integration. GIEE is the first institute that covers the up to date education of the integration of DERs to the electric grid.
If you are looking to increase your marketability in the solar and power industry or want to make a career change into this exciting growth industry, the knowledge you will gain in the CSEE program will be the strong foundation for your future growth.
