There are several program options to becoming an HVAC Service Technician. Get to know the campus, curriculum/hands-on activities, program length, and career assistance before you make the decision to spend your time, money, and hopes. For today, we’ll take a quick review on these three areas and follow-up with a few more next time.
Campus Visit
Before making any decisions as to which program is right for you, narrow your search by visiting the campuses you are considering. Things to consider include driving distance, facility distractions, comfortableness (go with your gut on this one), and parking.
Curriculum Review
Though most HVAC programs are consistent with each other when it comes to curriculum, look for user-and reader friendliness. Make sure the text fits your needs and introduces the basic concepts you will need as an HVAC Service Technician. For a bonus, make sure the program offers personal as well as professional material every day. Employers want soft and personal skills… period.
Hands-on Activities
Before signing the bottom line, walk through the lab/hands-on portion of the program. Make sure EVERY day offers real-world experiences. Without exception, theory is good, but practice is great. Check out our next blog as a few more considerations will be reviewed.
