By the end of the first week each participant gets down and dirty in the field. This week we went over safety issues, ladder and equipment, as well as launching our knowledge in the field. All ten excelled in a homework project, sharing their insight to all in the workshop not only in the class but also sharing knowledge in the field.
Yesterday the day was filled with rain… not the best day one but then again, the first week is designed to dig deep into understanding HVAC systems, components, and safety. Overall, we were productive on many levels.
Today marks a new day and ten new adventures for a group beginning their HJVAC journey. Outside the rain has yet to subside so the group is delving deep into HVAC concepts, protocols, safety, and general industry speak.
Here’s an example as to why safety is important to everyone: 4,405 workers were killed on the job in 2013. Don’t become a statistic!
The level of dedication to HVAC was quite impressive as most participants had perfect attendance and was always into the process. With confidence, each possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities required… no doubt success will follow each along their personal and professional path.
Recognizing the ability to perform preventive maintenances are a fundamental skill HVAC technicians must excel at, all participants are required to conduct a multitude of PMs on a multitude of systems.
