Teaching and the Exam

The Renewable Energy Institute’s courses are based on the leading European-funded Project EMTEU: Energy Management Technician in Europe. The European Project EMTEU, which we have completed with our European partners, aims to provide the required knowledge and training to allow professionals and technicians to become quality experts, working in the renewable energy field. The Galileo Master Certificate (GMC) is awarded upon completion of the GMC exam, taken following one of a wide selection of renewable energy and energy efficiency training courses.

Committee of Quality Assessors

The Galileo Master Certificate exam papers are compiled and marked by authorities and quality assessors such as university professors and experts with up to 40 years of theoretical and practical experience; and independently audited before the Certificate is awarded. The exams, and the courses themselves, are rigorously and continuously assessed by the EMTEU committee of the REI to ensure that they meet a consistent standard of knowledge expected within the industry.
