Work Environment

Most work full time during regular business hours, but some are required to be on call for emergencies, including evenings and weekends.
How to Become a Solar Photovoltaic Installer
Although some installers need only a high school diploma and receive on-the-job training lasting up to 1 year, most candidates receive training at a technical school or community college. These 2-year programs offer entry-level courses or may be part of an apprenticeship program.
