In
cooperation with the California EPA Department
of Toxic Substances, the California Institute of
Nanotechnology
is pleased to offer
NanoBio
Apprenticeship
to provide consulting services to meet the
needs of the nanotech companies to be in
compliance under the jurisdiction of AB289.
The apprentice is on the job training to provide
consulting services in the areas of
nanotoxicology, environmental and health and
safety aspects of nanomaterials. Our clients are
manufacturers and R&D companies and research
institutes involved in the development and
production of carbon nanotubes, nanoparticles of
metal oxides and quantum dots used in the
manufacturing of nano-thin film photovoltaic
systems.
To be considered for NanoBio Apprenticeship,
candidates must have graduated from the
Certified Nanotech & Clean Tech Professional
with good standing and have passed a Placement
Test.

Certified Photovoltaic Practitioner
The Certified Photovoltaic Practitioner (CCP) program is
designed for those individuals wanting to get into the
high-growth solar energy industry. The
program provides basic knowledge comprehension and
application of
photovoltaic (solar electric) system operations.
The CCP certificate prepares the student to pass the
NABCEP Entry Level
Certificate exam.
The NABCEP Entry Level Certificate of Knowledge exam is
based on a set
of learning objectives developed by a NABCEP Committee
of PV subject
matter experts.
Photovoltaic Energy
Practitioners design and install solar panels on
buildings. It’s
a highly technical process that involves a careful
consideration of location
and angles. The solar installer is also responsible for
making sure the panels
are properly connected to the building’s electrical
system and any “smart” two-way
metering systems (which allow customers to get paid for
surplus energy they generate)
that may be present.
The Learning Objectives include ten
(10) skill sets:
·
PV Markets and Applications
·
Safety Basics
·
Electricity Basics
·
Solar Energy Fundamentals
·
PV Module Fundamentals
·
System Components
·
PV System Sizing
·
PV System Electrical Design
·
PV System Mechanical Design
·
Performance Analysis and
Troubleshooting
