AIR CONDITIONING/REFRIGERATION Certificate – 51 Credit Hours
A IR C ONDITIONING AND R EFRIGERATION (ACR)
Note: ORI 101 Orientation is required during the first semester of attendance for all students entering this program.
The Air Conditioning/Refrigeration program’s instructional process begins with the fundamentals of refrigeration and electricity. Once these courses are mastered, students will take advanced courses in a sequence that fits their individual interest. Each course offers specific skills needed by technicians on the job. Students receive assignments and job sheets through each phase of study and all hands-on learning occurs on industry standard equipment. MISSION: The mission of the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration program is to prepare students to successfully install service and troubleshoot HVACR systems. As HVACR technicians, graduates will be skilled in both commercial and residential service.
