SEI believes that people learn by doing. Instructors are leaders in their fields, bringing the most up-to-date information in renewable energy technologies. Classroom and laboratory work is enhanced by case studies, tours and practical installations.Classes are small. We work hard and ask that you do the same. SEI stresses safety and consideration. People from different cultures attend our workshops, and we expect that all participants treat people of different backgrounds and abilities with respect. We try our best to make your experience rewarding and enjoyable. Unless otherwise noted, our workshops are taught in English.
