Prioritizing DEIJ in Education
SEIA values diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice within our organization and the promotion of these values across the solar industry. These values are extended into the creation of our education across events and other programming. We have made a commitment to ensure that all educational programs provided by SEIA must represent the diversity that the industry values and aspires to recognize. Sessions, webinars, and other courses that do not meet the standards of inclusion will not be confirmed until we have enough participants that rightfully represent the renewable energy industry.
These values are also reflected in all RE+ education.

Partnership with RE+
Together, SEIA and SEPA (Smart Electric Power Alliance) produce RE+. Unlike other industry events, all proceeds from RE+ events support the expansion of the energy industry through SEIA and SEPA’s year-round research and education activities, and extensive advocacy and advisory efforts. RE+ events encompass a wide-ranging portfolio, including events within the U.S. focusing on trends and policies in specific states and regions, and international events that bring together clean energy leaders in up-and-coming markets across the world. These events explore trends and developments in a variety of clean energy sectors such as solar, storage, hydrogen, EVs, microgrids, and more.

Solar 101
SEIA recognizes the importance of our position in the industry as a resource for education, and as we expect greater workforce expansion in the Solar+ Decade, it is even more necessary that we continue to lead in this space. With this expected growth, there is an increased need for introductory content catered to new solar professionals. SEIA has developed a comprehensive platform for solar 101 content where both SEIA members and non-members can learn the basics of solar at their own pace.
SEIA’s Solar 101 Program is an all-inclusive platform for solar energy professionals to access expert knowledge on specific industry topics and trends. Our Solar 101 Program offers valuable expert insight into many areas including topics such as solar technology, market segmentation, transmission, project development, permitting, and more. With centralized access to these types of materials, our online 101 content allows professionals to develop a solid foundation of knowledge necessary for success in the industry. The program includes a diverse set of courses that will provide value to both new entrants to the industry and established professionals who are looking for a refresher on certain solar subjects.

DEIJ Certification Program
SEIA’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice (DEIJ) Certification program is a first-of-its-kind platform that encourages energy companies to implement evidence-based DEIJ best practices within their companies. The program provides resources and guidance as businesses evaluate their current DEIJ progress, and similar to other programs like LEED, users will achieve levels of certification based on the activities they complete.
