Course Description: This package of three MREA courses (PV 101, 201 & 202) is the one-click registration that allows participants to work through materials in preparation for the NABCEP PV Associate exam, or any entry-level PV training, in a self-paced online format.  

 

These three courses can also be purchased separately, and PV 202 can be purchased with or without a textbook, but the Core Course Package includes it all in one convenient bundle: PV 101, 201, 202, and the textbook. Students can work through recorded presentations and exercises at their own pace. If the coursework is finished within the 30-30-60-day time limits and all assignments receive a passing grade, a completion certificate is issued for each course. When you finish with PV 101, you can start (enroll in) PV 201; when you’re done with PV 201, you can enroll in PV 202. 

 
Office Hours are available Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12-1 p.m. CT via Zoom. This time is available for you to ask questions and talk to an instructor in real time if desired.
