Enersol provides extensive training to participants in our AguaSol and EduSol programs. These programs are designed to help rural community residents take an important step toward becoming more independent and self-sustaining. Among our current courses are:
AguaSol Courses
- Community Water Supply Using Photovoltaics: Economics, Evaluation, and Community Selection builds skills of collaborating NGOs to ensure the best communities receive solar-powered water systems.
- Principles of PV for Rural Water Supply Technicians teaches technical personnel how to install and maintain systems.
- PV Community Water Supply Orientation and Operation describes solar technology, payment and maintenance, so communities can effectively care for their new water systems.
- Water, Sanitation, and Health addresses the need for hygiene education and adequate sanitation, and discusses how communities benefit from an improved water supply.
EduSol Courses
- Introduction to Computers for Students is designed to create a base of knowledge in communities where computers are installed. This course is given to school-age children, other classes, and after-school groups and clubs, with the assistance of local teachers.
- Introduction to Computers for Teachers provides teachers with a basic foundation in the use of computer technology, and introduces them to popular word processing software. In addition to building computer skills, the goal of this course is to help teachers incorporate computer-based learning into daily curriculum, and to use their software skills to create teaching and testing materials.
- Solar Energy and the Environment is designed to raise the awareness of how new, sustainable energy sources work, and how they provide cleaner environments to the communities who adopt them for basic services. This course is offered to computer user-groups and other interested members of the community and is typically delivered after a system has been added in a community.
- Opening the Door to the Internet is offered to school age children. In communities where books are scarce, the Internet offers entrée to a wider world.
