The North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) is proud to announce its partnership with ProSight Specialty Insurance (ProSight). Through this partnership, NABCEP is able to add to their Benefits of Certification program, and launch an exclusive insurance offering for NABCEP Certified Professionals. The organizations have collaborated to promote NABCEP certification by offering insurance premium credits to qualified solar installation companies that have achieved NABCEP Company Accreditation or have Certified Professionals on staff.
“Our partnership with ProSight Specialty Insurance demonstrates how installation companies, and the solar industry as a whole, benefits from a trained and certified workforce,” said Richard Lawrence, Executive Director at NABCEP. “ProSight understands the risks associated with our industry and offers products that help meet the needs of solar installation professionals.”
As the solar industry’s most recognized and esteemed certification, there are many benefits that come with being a NABCEP Certified Professional. Certificants and Accredited Companies gain increased credibility and marketing value, giving them a competitive advantage over other solar professionals that do not hold the same certification or accreditation. This in turn provides greater career mobility and peer recognition.
NABCEP’s Benefits of Certification program demonstrates solar industry support through exclusive offers on products, services, and events. This new partnership with ProSight Specialty Insurance adds to the growing list of benefits available to NABCEP Certified Professionals and Accredited Companies.
“NABCEP certified contractors bring a ‘gold standard’ level of safety and skill to every project and we value NABCEP’s leadership and commitment to furthering educational excellence in the renewable energy industry,” said Mary Hughes, President of Energy at ProSight Specialty Insurance. “The premium credit was designed for qualified NABCEP certified practitioners because we know they have achieved a skill level in the field given the training and expertise associated with a NABCEP certification.”
This partnership comes just days before the 4th Annual Continuing Education Conference in Albany, NY, designed for NABCEP Certified Professionals who need continuing education credits in order to maintain their certification. ProSight will be at the conference from March 30 through April 1, to meet with attendees to discuss safety, risk management and the exclusive insurance offering for NABCEP certified professionals.
