🌟 Alumni Spotlight: Felicity 🌟

Felicity graduated from our welding program in April 2025, and she hasn't slowed down since! She's now working in the Iron Workers Union doing rod busting and concrete work and loving the great benefits that come with it. 🏗️

When we asked for her best advice, here's what she said:

🗣️ "Socialize and make connections."

That's right, in the trades, who you know matters just as much as what you know. Build those relationships!

Way to go, Felicity!

What does low voltage have to do with a steam boiler?

Level 2 student Alexander breaks down the role of low-voltage controls in a steam boiler system and shows how the concepts he's learning in the classroom connect to the equipment in the lab.

That's the value of getting hands-on with the systems you're learning about, it's one thing to read about it, and another to understand how it works in front of you.

Great job, Alexander!

🙌 What a great surprise!

Alumni Mohammed and Andrew stopped by campus after wrapping up a job in Willowbrook, and we couldn't have been happier to see them.

Both are now Service Technicians with Energy Services Air Conditioning & Heating Co.working in the field on residential and commercial calls.

It's pretty cool to see two of our former students come back in their work truck after a day on the job and see where their training has taken them.

Thanks for stopping by, Mohammed and Andrew! Keep up the great work!

Meet Jason, Class of 1996!

Jason’s career has taken him through several different roles in the facilities and HVAC world. He started in building maintenance, moved into the hotel industry, and eventually worked his way up to Chief Engineer.

Today, Jason works for a school district, where he services rooftop units and boilers and helps keep the facilities running smoothly.
