Manager at Heliodyne,
Robert Cooley, announced that using the
Internet as a medium to train and educate plumbers, builders, dealers,
engineers, architects, planners and others is an ideal solution. “We can reach
so many without the inconvenience and expense of travel," he says.
Training
topics include:
Solar Hot Water Fundamentals
Sales and
Quoting
Sizing

Service and Maintenance
The
subjects are broken down into short lessons that the student can study at his
or her own pace from the convenience of their home or office.
Using
a Web-based Learning Management System, students are taught using a series of
professionally produced videos and illustrations. After viewing and studying
each lesson, the student has the option to take an online exam. Taking and
passing the exams is not required, but is necessary if the student wants to
become a certified installer of Heliodyne products.
