Around twelve individuals are on the verge of completing a comprehensive three-month solar panel installation course, scheduled to conclude this Saturday.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Initiated in July and guided by industry professional Alex Spencer, this part-time course aims to bolster the pool of skilled tradespeople in Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>\n

Franz DeFreitas, the course organizer and United Progressive Party (UPP) caretaker for St John’s City South, emphasizes the need for alternative energy expertise in the region.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

He envisions this course as a foundation for participants to pursue further certification, ultimately enabling them to generate income and share their knowledge with other countries.<\/p>

Upon completion, participants will receive certificates, subsidised by DeFreitas himself.<\/p>\n
