Solar, Wisconsin's largest home

schools in the Madison area visited Everlight Solar's headquarters
to engage in a day of immersive, hands-on activities designed to
introduce them to potential careers in the solar industry.

Around 150 students from Madison East

from Everlight Solar's Director of Electrical Operations, Sales
Development Manager, and numerous members of Everlight's

mission and the growing importance of renewable energy.
The students then rotated through various activity stations that

sales games session, students practiced their communication skills,
learning the fundamentals of sales through role-playing exercises.

hard work involved in installing solar panels, promoting teamwork
