Industrial Electrical Technician Courses

 

Air Conditioning and Refrigeration

This course is based on critical information needed to maintain HVAC systems safely and efficiently. Learn how to maintain peak efficiencies of your systems, which will minimize your risk of downtime. This course is offered in a hands-on training format, which means that you will use NTT’s simulation training equipment.
