The Rise Up Scholarship Training Program provides organizations with free, hands-on solar training for students that can take them from “square one” all the way to their NABCEP PV Associate Exam. With your support, we can take MREA’s industry leading solar training on the road to provide free access to the education and mentorship students need to join the growing solar workforce.
Supporting the Next Generation of Solar Installers
The Midwest Renewable Energy Association (MREA) offers free solar training to organizations that serve under-represented communities across the Midwest through the Rise Up Scholarship Training Program. Established to expand access to workforce development opportunities in the renewable energy field, Rise Up Scholarships provide groups with free, industry-leading solar technical training and paid internship opportunities.
Upon completion of the Rise Up curriculum, students can enroll in PV Site Assessment (PV 201) and PV System Design (PV 202) to complete the eligibility requirements to sit for the NABCEP PV Associate Exam.
