A rigorous curriculum endorsed by HVAC Excellence

HVACR, Level 1, is the first installment of NCCER's 4th highest-selling series: a 4-part HVACR curriculum. The program trains future technicians in installing, maintaining and repairing heating, ventilating, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. By meeting HVAC Excellence accreditation standards, the curriculum prepares trainees for success on HVAC Excellence certification exams.

With the 6th Edition revision, the title changed from HVAC to HVACR to reflect coverage of refrigeration in the curriculum. New on-the-job case studies prepare students for the scenarios they'll encounter in the field.
