The HTC curriculum was custom developed by the 61-year-old Potter, and it is based on his 44 years of HVAC field work experience. Students complete a three-month course consisting of 192 hours of hands-on service and classroom training. The Hockley, Texas-based school is fully approved by the state licensing agency, Texas Workforce Commission.
HVAC service companies that receive some of the 120 graduates per year overlook the unconventionality of the school and rely on Potter's training skills and dedication.
