Description of the Program:
This program was designed to train and develop competent and employable technicians for the Air Conditioning industry. This program contains the most essential and relevant knowledge that employer contractors require from the technicians they are going to hire or employ to be used in their new and existing hires. The content of the program includes: installation, repair and maintenance of Air Conditioning units, testing of Air Conditioning units, troubleshooting, workplace safety, common industry tools, essential electrical elements, welding, making a vacuum, charging and recovering refrigerants, knowledge of the refrigeration cycle, important and critical concepts of thermodynamics, theory about the change of state, etc. Students also receive a 16-hour seminar to prepare them to take the EPA 608 certification exam, administered on our campus. Once the exam is passed, new technicians can be employed by contracting companies as certified service technicians. They can complete repairs on existing machines, but they cannot obtain permits or perform new installations, as general contractors, who hold state licenses, can. Without these additional licenses, the graduate is limited to working for a company under a contractor. No technician can work for a contractor if he does not have federal certification from the EPA, the American Federal Environmental Agency, which will allow him to work and manipulate Air Conditioning units that work with regulated refrigerants. (Obtaining these licenses to be a contractor requires multiple years of experience working in this field and passing exams provided by the state). The EPA 608 certification we provide is issued by the ESCO Institute®️ company.
