The major function of the NABCEP Photovoltaic Associate (PVA) Program is identifying individuals who have obtained the knowledge of the fundamental principles of the application, design, installation, and operation of Photovoltaic (PV) systems. As with any developing technology, it is fully expected that the skills required of the practitioner will develop and change over time as new materials, techniques, codes, and standards evolve. Anyone who passes the NABCEP PV Associate Exam has demonstrated a basic knowledge of photovoltaic systems. The knowledge demonstrated by passing this test does not replace the knowledge, skills or abilities of the electrical or other construction trades, or those of other professions or degree programs that require considerably more academic and practical experience. It should also be noted that individuals passing the NABCEP PV Associate Exam should not be confused with NABCEP’s Certified PV Installation Professional Exam. The latter can only be achieved by highly experienced individuals who have passed a much more rigorous examination and have demonstrated the capability to supervise complete PV system installations, and who have a detailed working knowledge of the electrical codes, standards and accepted industry practice associated with PV installations.
