Mechanical Service Contractors of America’s HVAC 101 curriculum
gives non-trade personnel a better understanding of HVACR terms, basic systems
and the visual tools they need in successful day-to-day interactions with customers and coworkers.
We went to the experts for this focused set of resources that lets you help every member of your staff to get on the same team. Taught by Professor Woody Woodall, Chairman of the MSCA Education Committee, this course is an engaging and informative necessity for success in a competitive economy.
Every one of our webinar-and-workbook modules includes the most fundamental industry concepts, presented in a thorough real-world way that will help your workforce to better understand our business. Each module consists of a 50-minute webinar and corresponding workbook. Webinars are free to MSCA/MCAA members. For those that have not yet been recorded (webinars 9 and 10), registration is required.
Each workbook costs $10 ($30 for non-members). The entire ten-workbook set can be ordered at a cost of $75 ($225 for non-members). Workbooks 9 and 10 will be sent out approximately ten days before the corresponding webinars. Upon completion of the entire webinar series, and submission of a brief quiz after each program, participants will receive a certificate of completion.
