About the course

­­Do you want to shorten your apprenticeship in refrigeration and air conditioning? You could find yourself installing an air conditioning system in an office building one day, and then fixing a commercial freezer on a fishing boat the next. Learn the practical skills you need to become a refrigeration and air conditioning technician. If you don’t already have an apprenticeship, study this programme to cut your apprenticeship off-the-job learning by up to a year. At MIT our refrigeration and air conditioning facilities include a coolroom and up-to-date testing equipment. Aspects of this programme are physically demanding. Please talk with an Ask Me! agent if you face fitness or mobility challenges. Please note: A small component of this programme is delivered by a sub-contractor. You may be required to complete literacy and numeracy assessments as part of this programme.
