| The Clean Energy Regulator has announced a new accreditation provider. Effective 29 February 2024, Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA) is responsible for the accreditation of installers and designers. Visit saaustralia.com.au now to switch or apply for accreditation. |
As of 29 February 2024, the Clean Energy Council handed over administration of the accreditation program to Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA). 100 Annual ongoing Continuous Professional Development (CPD) points is still a requirement of accreditation. The Clean Energy Council will continue to offer CPD-eligible courses on our Learning Hub
The Learning Hub is where installers and designers can find on-demand courses developed by the Clean Energy Council. This content is designed to fit in around the schedules of accredited persons so you don’t have to down tools to attend training and can keep costs at a minimum. The Learning Hub is accessed through the login area of our website.
There are many training options that qualify for earning CPD points. View the full list on our training courses page.
Can anyone earn CPD points?
CPD points are only available to fully accredited designers and installers.
I want to earn CPD points. When should I start completing my training?
When you receive your full accreditation, you commit to completing 100 CPD annually so you can start earning points straight away once you are fully accredited. Any courses you undertake before becoming fully accredited will not count towards your 100 points.
I found a course I want to complete but it isn't included on the website. What do I do?
You can request that a course be added to our list at any time. The Clean Energy Council will review the training, make a decision on whether it's appropriate for CPD, determine the number of points the course will be allocated, and add it to the website. You will need to wait until it has been added before completing the course in order for the points to count.
