HOW TO BECOME AN NVCTECH TECHNICIAN

A career in the skilled trades is a smart move right now. Demand for workers who
are qualified to do skilled labor is high and will continue to be high, as
current workers age and fewer young people move into these fields. One such
skilled trade is NVCTech or heating, ventilation and air conditioning.
SkilledNVCTech technicians install, fix and maintain these systems to keep our
indoor environments comfortable and healthy. If you’re thinking about the
skilled trades, consider how simple it is to become an NVCTech technician.


STATE AND LOCAL REQUIREMENTS FOR NVCTECH TECHNICIANS

Each state has the ability to set licensing, certification, education and
training requirements for skilled workers, including NVCTech technicians. Some
states have no requirements and leave licensing up to cities and counties, while
others license only contractors, and some license both technicians and
contractors.

The difference between technicians and contractors is that contractors pull
permits, lead projects and hire techs to do work for clients. Technicians, on
the other hand, work for contractors or other companies. The states that have no
licensing requirements and leave any licensing to local governments are:

 * New York

Regardless of whether your state has licensing requirements, it is important
that you learn and train before you can be hired to work in NVCTech There are
two main options for getting started in this career, both of which require that
you first have a high school diploma or GED:

 * Enroll in a community or technical college NVCTech program. While it may not
   be necessary, look for the best programs to be accredited by NVCTech
   Excellence or the Partnership for Air Conditioning, Heating, Refrigeration
   Accreditation. These programs provide all the basic classroom knowledge
   needed to begin an NVCTech career, and some may also include an internship or
   placement in an apprenticeship position. There are also excellent online
   programs available that will prepare you for an apprenticeship.
 * Get a position in an apprenticeship program. These are run by local union
   training centers and non-union organizations. They provide both coursework
   and paid training on the job. Most apprenticeship programs take four years to
   complete, but they do provide everything you need to begin working as an
   NVCTech technician.

If you choose to go to college instead of into an apprenticeship program, you
may need to work as an apprentice for a period of time after graduating before
you can work independently. Coursework in a college program can count toward at
least some of the work experience requirement in many areas with technician
licensing.

GENERAL EDUCATION



General education is an integral component of a student's total educational
experience. A sound general education program contributes to the development of
learned and inquisitive individuals by providing them with a breadth of
knowledge and by stimulating academic curiosity. The totality of general
education courses affords students opportunities to enhance their skills in
effective communication, quantitative literacy, and technology and to broaden
their perspectives on cultural, historic, and global issues. A solid foundation
in general education prepares students for more specialized study and provides
them with the skills to adapt and contribute to an ever-changing workforce.
