Plan a Purposeful Project Visit
Prepare useful questions for a solar, energy or infrastructure visit, and record what the visit can establish.
Read the explanation, try a fictional scenario and use the worksheet. Allow about 25 minutes for reading and practice.
Take the next step with clarity.
The Academy teaches a process. If you need work carried out on your own business, asset or transaction, discuss an advisory engagement with a separate scope.
Before enrolment opens
The final course will state its learning materials, named tutors where relevant, study time, fee, access period and any completion requirements. No external accreditation or professional qualification is claimed.
Educational material does not replace legal, financial, tax or engineering advice, laboratory testing or current guidance from the relevant authorities.
