NABCEP
The North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) is the “gold standard” for PV and solar thermal installation certification. They are a good resource to training and certification to do the type of work you describe.
Along with this your state may have restrictions on who can do the work.
You may need a contractors, electrical or plumbing license. As well as the usually legal stuff like insurance, business license, financing etc.
Check out your local community colleges for courses that they may offer.
Do you have enough knowledge about solar energy? You need to find a consultant that would tell you for specific business plan and that would tell you where to start and how and who are your target customers.
