About This Program

Do you enjoy getting your hands dirty while working on in-home HVAC systems? Then training in the Fresno Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) program at UEI College can propel you toward a rewarding career you can be proud of. Experienced professionals in the HVAC field will provide you with foundational knowledge in electric, heating systems, refrigeration and controls, to prepare you for that first step toward a wide range of career possibilities.

The HVAC trade school program prepares students for two certifications: the EPA Section 608 Certification (required for graduation) for stationary air conditioning and refrigeration, and the Low GWP Refrigerant Safety Certification, which is not required but highly recommended to enhance industry readiness.

Our blended approach provides you with the opportunity to attend online classes on your schedule, as well as gain hands-on training with an experienced instructor by using real-world tools in the lab twice a week. Gain the knowledge to start a new career in as little as 10 months.
