Frequently Asked Questions
How Long is The Course?
This course is 120 clock hours long. This is accomplished from 8:00 am to 11:00 am, or 5:30 -8:30 pm, Monday through Thursday, with no classes on Fridays. It will take 10 weeks to complete the 16 subjects. There are 3 – 4 sessions offered per year; Spring class beginning in January/February, Summer class beginning in April/May, and Fall class beginning in September/October.
What is The Main Teaching Method?
“Hands on, Hands on, Hands on“ is the short but important answer. Mr. Walters has seen many technicians over his 40 year career that did not get enough hands on training or teaching. Many of these students came with certificates and made excellent grades. These same Technicians had never touched some of the most basic components and instead spent most of the time in classrooms. Our facility is one big shop setting. You sit at workbenches and use tools every day. There will be lecture and class instructions, but almost all of it is followed by practical examples.
What are The Class Sizes?
The facility and the course was designed to teach a small teacher to student ratio. Class sizes will not exceed 20 students.
What Can I Expect To Learn?
The air conditioning and heating technician training program is a comprehensive course designed to teach students the skills and techniques required for entry level employment into the residential and light commercial, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) field. Upon completion of this program, students will be able to install, service, and maintain typical air conditioning and heating systems found in the southern environment of the United States. Graduates may find suitable entry level employment with air conditioning companies, building maintenance departments, high rise building engineering departments, or other employment where HVAC skills are required. Graduates will learn with class lecture, discussion, and with hands-on experience in lab environments. They will also be exposed to a variety of actual equipment and mock up situations designed to prepare them for fieldwork.
