Where can I learn about installing energy efficiency products in homes as a career?

Question

Hey all, I want to take up a career in energy conservation in the home. Basically I want to learn how to install and connect solar panels and other modifications to homes for decreasing utility costs and being more environmentally conscious. I was wondering is anyone knows any schools or other institutions that would be able to give me the training I need. Or if you think I should just go and work in the electrically field and branch off on my own. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

cool, hope you succeed. I didn't know there were such courses offered. Electrical field may not go into that... this would be more of a social science..

Answer 2

Go into the plumbing and heating business.

Answer 3

Instead of working for someone else, why not form your own corporation?

Too often our schools teach students to be good employees rather than good employers.  We need to get more kids active in the capitalist workforce,
