The Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration Technology Program is designed to prepare students for entry-level employment in the Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration industry. Upon completion of this program students are knowledgeable in all of the major areas of the Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration trade necessary to repair and install today's high tech equipment.

In each area, students cover the basics of each system, and learn to assemble and troubleshoot the various devices necessary for the systems. The student will become familiar with the mechanical and electrical components necessary to work in the field
