On-Site Power Schools EGSA’s education programs are designed to help the On-Site Power professional stay abreast of today’s fast-changing technology. EGSA hosts Basic and Advanced Schools throughout the United States that outline the technical aspects of On-Site Power systems.

CEU Program

Thanks to our Continuing Education Unit (CEU) program, those who attend the On-Site Power School have a way to demonstrate what they learned. CEUs are awarded after you attend our school and pass a test. Applicants complete the test at their convenience and mail it to EGSA within 30 days for grading. “ Learning Outcomes” for each module of the school are available to give applicants specific information about what they are expected to learn.

Technician Certification The EGSA Electrical Generator Systems Technician Certification Program employs rigorous testing to identify generator technicians who have attained sufficient levels of skill, knowledge, and expertise to demonstrate proficiency in various aspects of generator set and On-Site Power generation systems maintenance and repair.
