LOAD CALCULATION AND DUCT DESIGN CLASS

We have scheduled a Load Calculation and Duct Design Class to run the evenings of January 3, 5, 10, & 12, 2012.  Here is the class description:
  • This 16-hour class will focus on the proper method to calculate heat loss for a residential home using a Manual J workbook and spreadsheet.  Information from the spreadsheet will be used to calculate the heat loss for each room, and the entire house.  Duct design will incorporate information from the heat loss spreadsheet to design a duct system to distribute the correct amount of air to each room to satisfy the load.  NOTE: This class qualifies for NATE Continuing Education Hours.
To register for this class, contact Kate at the Training Center:

PRO-10 CERTIFICATION CLASS

There are two PRO-10 Certification classes scheduled to start soon, one on November 7 and one on November 8:
  • This is a 12-hour professional skills training class that goes beyond technical training.  A few of the core topics covered are: Professionalism, Safety, Communication, Mutual Respect and Changing Perceptions.  You will receive the PRO-10 certification card upon successful completion of this class.  Some metro area job sites will soon be requiring you to have this card in order to work on that site, just like the requirement for an OSHA-30 card.  All metro area apprentices currently in school are receiving this training and getting their cards.  Don't limit your options for work, we highly recommend that you take this class now!
There is still room in these classes!  
To sign up, contact Kate: kmino@metrojatc.org  OR  651.779.6264.
