Frequently Asked Questions
Find your answers here:
Will there be more courses?
Yes, absolutely! Greenwood Academy will be regularly adding more renewable energy courses, in more cities across Australia.
Are there online courses offered by Greenwood Academy?
Of course ('scuse the pun!). Check out Online Courses for more detail. On average, we'll be looking to add a new online course every week until we run out of subject matter. But - given our curiosity, and the depth of the renewables industry - we don't see that ever happening!
The course I want to go to is already sold out - what do I do?
We're sorry to hear! Our courses have been selling super fast, but we've got plenty of Online Courses that you can take at any time. And, the good news is, because of our in-person courses' popularity, we'll be announcing more soon! So make sure you sign up to the Newsletter - or join our Community - to keep up-to-date with new courses releases!
Where will you be running in-person courses?
Currently we have in-person courses available (or coming very soon) in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. With more courses coming to a capital city or regional town near you, soon! Keep an eye out for updates in the Community forum.
