Roof Integrated Solar Energy™ (RISE) Inc. has announced its newest Certified Solar Roofing Professionals (CSRPs™). The CSRP designation is a voluntary certification for professionals who plan and oversee the installation of roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) systems. The credential evaluates whether candidates have the underlying knowledge required to successfully install roof-mounted PV systems.

RISE’s board of directors has conferred the designation of CSRP on the following individuals for meeting established eligibility criteria, passing a challenging examination and agreeing to develop themselves professionally to remain current with changes in the field. The CSRP designation applies only to the individuals named; companies are not certified. Many CSRPs successfully passed a rigorous exam Dec. 5, 2013, to obtain certification.
