KAYSVILLE, UT – On Monday, January 25, 2010, Davis Applied Technology College, a UCAT campus, will offer an introductory course in Renewable Energy Sources through Continuing Education. The course will run Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. through April 7, 2010. The cost is $699 and includes the required textbook (qualified companies pay just $420).
The course is open to anyone (individuals, businesses, contractors, etc.) with an interest in renewable energy, including those who are seeking to install alternative energy systems or becoming licensed energy contractors.
Participants will learn the basic types of renewable energy including photovoltaic solar (PV), solar thermal, geothermal, wind, energy conservation, international green conservation codes, and generators. In addition, the related building codes and design features of each type of renewable energy source listed will be discussed.
Mark Jacobsen, course instructor, states why alternative power is so beneficial. “I like renewable energy because there are so many options available to supplement power. Energy rates are going to continue to climb, so it is it important to be proactive in finding a solution to keeping energy costs down.”
Once completing the course, participants may decide to pursue a career in the discipline or use the knowledge to install their own source of energy. Jacobsen states, “The cost is only going to get worse, especially if some laws get passed. This is why people should go green. It’s more of a necessity now because people can’t afford power like they use to.”
To register for the Renewable Energy Source course, contact Davis Applied Technology College at 801-593-2100 or go to www.datc.edu/ece and click “Renewable Energy Sources”.
