For over 30 years, SEI’s Work-Trade Program has enabled people to hone their solar technology skills and improve their capabilities while helping to strengthen and grow SEI. In fact, many of our current staff were once work-traders!

PROGRAM OVERVIEW:

SEI offers its Work-Traders a credit equivalent to $20/ hour for each hour worked. You can trade up to 100% of the tuition of each class. We strive to have all of our work-traders complete their work portion before taking any workshops.

Eligibility Requirements:

To be eligible to become an SEI work-trader you must:

1. For most work-trade positions, you must be a resident of the US or Canada, due to Visa requirements.  For positions that allow for international applicants, the applicant is responsible for obtaining a travel visa (if needed) for to travel to any in-person training at our Colorado, Oman, or Costa Rica campus location.
2. Possess the skills for a position we seek to be filled. Remember, this is not an internship; it is a work-trade agreement in which we match our needs to your existing skills. Even so – you’ll probably end up learning a lot just by working with us!
3. When applying for a position you may send a resume or request for an application to return, to our Work Trade Coordinator at [email protected]
4. Provide the contact information for (2) references – past employers, supervisors, professors, etc. (no family members please).
5. Be available for a phone or in-person interview.

THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO OPEN WORK TRADE POSITIONS. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR FUTURE POSITIONS.
