Request for solar educational material [RE-wrenches]

[Darryl Thayer]

HI Windy
I teach two courses, neither fill the bill for what
you want.  I teach a course for high school science
teachers for which they get CEUs and I teach a solar
PV for professionals, which is populated by
electricians and electrical contractors.   Both
courses are 40 hours, and I find I can not cover the
material in that time.  

The backbone of my courses came from Bill Brooks
Course, which I highly recomend.
