MOUNT PROSPECT, Ill. — Todd Kler of HVACRedu.net, an online HVACR training platform, recently earned the title of Certified Master HVACR Educator, or CMHE, from HVAC Excellence.

Instructors who earn the title of Certified Master HVACR Educator have shown that they have the retained knowledge necessary to prepare students for success in most entry-level jobs in the HVACR industry.

An HVACR instructor must pass seven specific Certified Subject Matter Educator exams with a score of 80% or higher to earn the CMHE credential. The exams are: teaching methodologies - principles and practices; electrical; air conditioning; light commercial air conditioning; light commercial refrigeration; electric heat; and either gas heat, oil heat, or heat pumps.

The exams create a nationally recognized benchmark that aids school administrators in selecting qualified professionals to lead their HVACR programs. The exams also provide HVACR instructors the tools to validate where professional development may be needed.
