Series Description: At the Midwest Renewable Energy Association (MREA), our mission is to promote renewable energy, energy efficiency, and sustainable living through education and demonstration. As part of this mission, we actively seek strategic partnerships with industry-leading manufacturers and distributors like you. By collaborating, we aim to provide our students with an exceptional, hands-on learning experience that reflects real-world technologies and best practices. 
 
The MREA has offered an Energy Professional series at in-person events and online for over 20 years. In an industry that changes as fast as ours, we need continued access to high-quality education to ensure that our workforce remains skilled, adaptable, and prepared for the challenges of a rapidly evolving energy landscape. Partnerships with companies like yours help us keep our training current, relevant, and impactful—equipping learners with the tools they need to succeed and drive progress in the clean energy sector.
 
These webinars are not only an opportunity to expand your knowledge and stay up-to-date with cutting-edge technologies but also a chance to earn valuable NABCEP Continuing Education Units.
