High School
Solar energy sales representatives and assessors must have an understanding of solar energy and solar systems and equipment as well as business and customer service skills. A well-rounded education is a good foundation for this profession. Take classes in math, science, environmental science, business, computer science, and English. Public speaking classes will help hone communication and persuasion skills that are important in sales jobs. Shop classes can also be helpful for learning basic machinery and technical skills, which could come in handy while on the job.
