Future Energy Skills has been working for the Office of Victorian Skills Commissioner to develop training and learning resources for 22515VIC Course in Working Safely in the Solar Industry (WSIS).
The course addresses work, health and safety, knowledge and skill requirements and is contextualised for the solar industry. It provides the skill set required by installers to work safely whilst installing solar panels, hot water systems and associated equipment.
