Ontario Focused Curriculum!
Proud CanSIA Member
Previously, the same 40 hour course was available only in the US.
For the first time it is being offered in Ontario, with a focus on
the Canadian Electrical Code and regulatory issues related to
Ontario's microFIT and FIT.
Why travel hours south for more costly US courses and incur added travel / accommodation expenses? Receive similar training locally, with an Ontario focused curriculum!
