Looking for the best solar training classes in California? The California Solar Power Society produces professional solar installation training certification classes, solar seminars, solar workshops, solar business conferences and solar trade shows.

We are the largest and most active solar association in Arizona, now we have launched a California Chapter. Membership is free, so please join our group today and begin your journey into the world of solar power and a green career.

The California Solar Power Society provides an unmatched portfolio of economic business development services that our members can utilize to help them grow their company, increase their sales and help them implement the most cost-effective marketing programs possible to add significantly more revenue to their bottom line.

Our solar training sessions, solar workshops, solar community outreach programs and solar business conferences are some of the best in the business. At these sessions you will have an opportunity to join hundreds of other attendees and enjoy an opportunity to meet and learn from the most intelligent and wisest decision makers in the solar industry, including experienced solar installation companies, solar vendors, utility companies, solar research firms, politicians and public policy makers that are working together to make solar the #1 energy source in California.

Our goal is to work diligently with as many decision makers as possible in order to organize the solar industry, teach them to work in parallel, help them develop an easy to find supply chain, and develop standardized message points that will help all solar companies develop consistent communications messages when marketing to the general public.

Our association works directly with students, entrepreneurs and unemployed workers to write business plans; develop solid marketing strategies; find good sales people; hire recent interns graduating from solar installation training programs; build relationships with utility executives that manage hundreds of millions of dollars worth of solar incentive programs; find good sources of money to finance solar contracts and solar lease/finance agreements; build relationships with established solar engineering firms that can provide additional workers for large commercial jobs; and even attorneys that can help you write profitable California solar power purchase agreements and net metering contracts that will allow commercial customers to supplement carbon electricity with clean, green power.

One step in this process is to send us a professional company description, logo, pictures, contact information and a list of services your company provides. We use this information to build a member profile that is included in the largest solar business directory in California. If you are doing business with a solar company that isn't in our database, you need to ask them, why not? If not, you need to follow the steps outlined in our California Solar Watchdog program to report bad business practices.

If you need a solar business source, please call us and we will point you to a vendor that can meet your needs. Every business that joins our society receives a free directory listing, free business leads and an option to participate in co-operative public relations, advertising and event marketing opportunities.

Regardless of whether you are an unemployed worker, a recent graduate, a seasoned executive looking to make a career change, a new startup company or an established solar installation company, solar retail outlet, solar reseller, solar distributor, we can help you make the best solar business contacts in California.

If you are a consumer and you just want to get involved with the solar grassroots movement, please join our California Solar Scout™ program and learn how to work with your neighbors and home owners associations (HOAs) to convert your neighborhoods or commercial business parks into a clean, green power machines.
