The Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Association (PHCC) of Alabama has launched an online apprenticeship program for hvac and plumbing apprentices.
Called “Targets for Learning,” the online “video-streamed” program provides a standardized four-year curriculum, mandated by U.S. Department of Labor standards, for the hvac and plumbing trades. The 48-week instruction consists of three hours per week classroom (accessing the Internet at contractor’s place of business), plus on-the-job training by the employer. The student has seven days to complete the three hours per week of classroom work.
