Electronic and computer manufacturers need cool, clean, and very dry air for their products. Farmers, livestock shippers, and fruit growers rely on refrigerated trucks, warehouses, and display cases to keep their products fresh. Printers use high-speed, multicolor printing equipment that requires strict humidity control to ensure product quality. Look for two-year associate programs or colleges and universities with high rates of job placement. Another direction can be to participate in an apprenticeship program.
Apprentices gain hands-on skills by working in the field, earn money, and learn at the same time.
Technical know-how is a plus. Using their strong technical knowledge, CAD designers can design the most efficient system, saving their clients money. Service technicians install new units, service broken ones, and maintain existing units. Manufacturers research, design, test, and manufacture heating and cooling systems that deliver the maximum comfort for the lowest cost. Their systems must be energy efficient and reliable.
