Prepare for the Green Revolution with Renewable Energy Training

GTO is the premier solar training facility on the East Coast, serving the renewable energy training needs of students from across the United States and Canada.  The demand for alternative energy is rapidly growing and there is ample government support for the renewable energy industry.

Whether you are a small business or a large corporation, this is an exciting business and career opportunity you don't want to miss.

Countless new jobs are expected to accompany this explosive growth. To better educate and  train  the expanding green workforce, GTO's classes were designed based on standards set by the Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC).

GTO instructors have more than 35 years of combined experience in the solar photovoltaics and solar thermal industries. They bring the most up-to-date information and expertise in renewable energy technologies directly to you.

• Ultimate hands-on solar installation training in real-world conditions
• Newly renovated facility including a multimedia classroom and in-house workshops with real-sized mock roof
• The first indoor grid-tied PV (photovoltaic) system on the East Coast
• The students who complete our accredited courses are much better trained than students who enroll in similar training programs. We have never trained our students in hotels. Hotels are not equipped to facilitate the proper hands-on learning experience. 

Numerous students from around the country have turned to GTO after spending time and money because they weren't satisfied with the training they received at other facilities. Students who attend other solar training programs have found themselves still looking for the ultimate learning experience. At GTO, our students only receive the highest level of solar education and hands-on training. We encourage prospective students to carefully review other solar training websites and look at their class photos and videos (if they have any) and compare them to us. Many training facilities offer presentation-only programs with no real substance or hands-on training whatsoever.

It makes no difference if it is raining outside, because it is "always sunny in Philadelphia"  with our indoor artificial sunlight system.

GTO's Solar Renewable Energy Training Classes are designed for licensed contractors (electrical, HVAC, plumbing, roofing, and general contractors), engineers, architects, green builders, and sales professionals. GTO is a business-to-business training facility. We plan to provide training to the general public soon.
