SMA has launched a new, free program that will help solar professionals stay informed and competitive in a constantly evolving industry. SMA Advance is a membership-based program that offers advanced product information, technical training, exclusive events, and more.
"As the world leader in solar inverter technology and manufacturing, SMA values innovation, education and community," said Ciara Wakefield, manager of customer marketing for SMA America and SMA Canada. "SMA Advance embodies these values by offering behind-the-scenes news and information, as well as training opportunities, that help solar professionals stay ahead of the curve."
Once registered for SMA Advance, members can define their primary area of focus: residential, commercial or off-grid/hybrid. Their landing pages will then be tailored with the latest news and information pertaining to this selection. Here, members can access a comprehensive library of resources regarding SMA products and services, and connect with a network of solar professionals and SMA experts through the online member forum. Members can also log into the SMA Print Portal, where they can order marketing materials such as data sheets, brochures and product guides.
Also available on SMA-Advance.com will be advanced product information and updates, technical training opportunities available through the SMA Solar Academy, and details about exclusive member events. All of this information will be available in the members-only SMA Insider newsletter.
As an added benefit, SMA Advance members will also be included in advance product launches and field testing opportunities.
