This online program is the related training/educational component of registered apprenticeship programs. Many employers find it a valuable structured way to provide on-the-job training to new to the industry employees through this 4-year workforce development program. Employers that need a customized apprenticeship program to meet specific system types are invited to contact us for a curriculum aligned to their primary HVACR workplace requirements.
Apprentices are enrolled for an 8-month period to complete the year’s program. We provide an initial live program orientation, scheduled with Live Faculty, and a campus navigation video to help students succeed. Apprentices can view only the first topic module at a time and open the next module by earning a minimum score of 70% on each module exam. An overall averaged grade of 70% is required to successfully pass the annual year program and receive a certificate of completion. Try to complete 2 modules each week. That will keep you on track to complete by the recommended schedule. You should refer to the Program Student Handbook for specifics.
