Underground Storage Tank Regulation Review Course
The New Jersey Underground Storage Tank (UST) regulations (NJAC 7:14B Subchapter 13) require that all personnel who install, close, test, and design corrosion protection systems for USTs must be certified. Subsurface evaluation certification is needed to evaluate impacts caused by unregulated USTs and UST sites that have discharges associated with them occurring prior to November 4, 2009. All owners/operators of USTs that are removed or closed in-place after November 4th, must retain the services of a Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP) to conduct subsurface evaluations and remediation. This UST certification course will summarize existing UST requirements as well as all existing and new NJ Department of Environment Protection implementing statutes and regulations. Upcoming Starting Dates: June 16 and Sept. 21, 2010 at NJIT. For more information: http://adultlearner.njit.edu/admissions/prospective/ust.php

Solar Panel Installer Training
This is a beginner course in the study of solar photovoltaic (PV) cells, modules, and system components; electrical circuits; PV system design and sizing for use on homes; solar electric products and applications; and understanding energy conversion from sunlight to electricity, and working with solar conversion equipment. This course is based on a model developed by the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) Photovoltaic (PV) Entry Level Solar Panel Installation Course and will give students the book knowledge and hands-on experience necessary to pass the NABCEP "Entry-level Solar Photovoltaic Certificate of Knowledge" exam. It is not intended to meet or replace the requirements for a Licensed Electrician. New classes are forming now. Check website for new dates.
