The objective of this program is to provide students with the knowledge and technical skills necessary to pursue entry-level employment in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning field, which includes selling, installing, and maintaining residential equipment. The program is designed to provide students with instructions and hands-on training in areas such as: installation, maintenance, repair, troubleshooting and basic design of refrigeration heating and air conditioning systems along with a focus on service operations. The curriculum includes hands-on lab simulations to help prepare students for field service work typically performed by installation technicians, shop service technicians, repair technicians, and apprentice mechanics. The HVAC program includes preparation for two important certifications for HVAC professionals: (1) EPA Section 608 Certification for Stationary Air Conditioning and Refrigeration and (2) Low GWP Refrigerant Safety Training Certification. Obtaining an EPA Section 608 Certification is a graduation requirement for this program for all students starting on or after 3/27/23. The Low GWP Refrigerant Safety certification is not a program completion requirement but is strongly encouraged. A diploma will be awarded upon graduation.
