Schumacher College is delighted to be partnering with PPL training in delivering courses specifically developed for people wanting to learn essential practical skills in renewable energy systems. These courses are accredited by the awarding bodies BPEC and NICEIC, both of which are nationally (UK) recognised in the industry and by the MCS scheme.
Demand for renewable energy installer skills now, and in the future will be high. Figures from the UK government expect the number of new people required in the UK green energy sector to rise to 100,000 over the next 5 years. The challenges of global warming and the increasing use of green energy into the future will provide you with a secure and meaningful employment outlook. PPL have trained many hundreds of people in renewable energy technologies and were one of the first in the country to offer solar and rainwater courses from BPEC.

Schumacher is developing an in-depth programme on low-impact refurbishment of homes and offices integrating applied social and engineering research, training and enterprise. Appropriate use of on-site renewable energy will play an important role in the challenge that all nations of the world now face in retrofitting neighbourhoods fit for the ecological age.
