Practitioners
EARTH will expand HVACR-technical-workforce continuing-education certificate programs as well as re-training and skill-upgrading opportunities. In collaboration with industry partners and continuing-education programs (e.g., KU Institute of Continuing Education, UM Maryland Applied Graduate Engineering), EARTH will create training modules on the latest refrigerant-technology developments to meet HVACR-certificate requirements. Similarly, EARTH will partner with industry-led training centers and other industry partners within EARTH’s Innovation Ecosystem to develop, pilot, and disseminate state-of-the-art online course materials and best-practices curricula.
