Real Student Stories

“I would recommend Preppy to people that need the ability to do the school online and want an amazing career!

...the customer support is amazing, the school itself was nice and easy to understand and navigate, and lastly the learning experience!"
- Brayden M.

HVAC Technicians are Integral to Home Services

There are some things most people can agree on: When it’s hot outside, we want our homes and businesses to be nice and cool inside. And when it’s cold outside, we want our homes and businesses to be nice and toasty!

And, when our heating or air conditioning is on the fritz, who do we call? Our local HVAC repairperson!

When you become a certified HVAC technician, you become a valued member of the home services industry.

HAVC technicians are responsible for installing, maintaining and repairing the HVAC systems within private homes and businesses. These pros also help home and business owners ensue their HVAC system is running efficiently and compliant with the latest government regulations.

A career as an HVAC technician is incredibly rewarding because you get a chance to meet many new people, while at the same time, help to solve their problems and make their home or place of business comfortable.

Why We Love Skilled Trades

Having a career in skilled trades means your skills are required for large portions of our economy.

Beyond that, you can earn your living and have the choice of whether you want to work for someone else or start your own HVAC company.

In addition, right now, we are seeing a boom in new home construction. That’s because the housing supply has dwindled. Experts are predicting we could see new construction of single-family homes exceed one million in the next 12 months. All of these new homes will require HVAC technicians to install the heating, venting and air conditioning units.

How fast is the HVAC Technician field growing?

The BLS (https://www.bls.gov/) reports that employment of these professionals is projected to grow 4% from 2019 to 2029. While there will likely be an increased demand for these tradespeople, those with certification could receive that competitive edge.

“The home services and construction industry need skilled HVAC tradesmen…you become an integral part!”

- Grant Aldrich, Founder & CEO Preppy
