[RE-wrenches] NABCEP competition? ANYONE OUT THERE????

[Blair May]

I am frustrated by the lack of response from the folks at NABCEP regarding
this type of comment.
Is anyone from NABCEP out there? Any thoughts on this???
To bad this wasn't discussed/addressed w/ UL prior to their launching.

      Underwriters Laboratories Announces Personnel Certification Program 
for Solar Photovoltaic System Installers
            26.04.2010: Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a global leader in 
safety testing and certification, announced today the introduction of a new 
program to train and certify installers of photovoltaic (PV) products and 
systems. The program, available beginning July 2010 through UL University 
(ULU), represents the first of many the organization will provide for 
practitioners across a wide range of industries and professions. The PV 
System Installer certification program was created to meet and exceed 
existing industry requirements through a working cooperation with leading PV

industry stakeholders, NGOs and professional associations. The new offering 
from ULU, geared towards licensed electricians, aims to satisfy a need to 
improve the safety and performance of PV systems through a more qualified 
workforce. With solar power expected to generate 10 percent of the world's 
total electricity by 2035, the safety of installed systems will become even 
more important. . Source: Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.
