In response to the evolving landscape of technology and the need for sustainable solutions, HVAC Excellence proudly announces the introduction of two new accreditation disciplines: Building Automation Systems and Green Mechanical Systems. With a legacy of setting standards in HVACR education, HVAC Excellence once again leads the way by venturing into uncharted territories.

The first new discipline, Building Automation Systems, addresses the surging demand for experts who can harness technology to optimize building operations. Through this programmatic accreditation, HVAC Excellence aims to empower educational institutions to provide comprehensive training in software systems that control and manage diverse aspects of a building’s functions, from HVAC and lighting to security and energy consumption. This advancement in education will lead to enhanced efficiency, heightened comfort, and improved safety while minimizing human intervention.

The second discipline, Green Mechanical Systems, caters to the growing appetite for sustainable solutions in the industry. With the rise of energy audits, geothermal systems, solar power, and more, HVAC Excellence’s programmatic accreditation will serve as a compass, guiding institutions in delivering education that aligns with the highest standards of excellence in the realm of green technology. This move not only solidifies the commitment to a greener future but also equips program completers with the knowledge and skills necessary to make a meaningful impact on the environment and its preservation.

The accreditation process is meticulous, evaluating aspects such as program mission, faculty qualifications, instructional design, and infrastructure. This stringent review ensures that students receive education that prepares them for success in the evolving HVACR landscape.

Educational institutions are invited to explore the opportunity to pursue accreditation in any of these innovative disciplines. By seeking accreditation, these institutions signal their dedication to providing top-tier education that prepares students to excel in their chosen fields.
