    How far are you prepared to travel for this training or are you only looking for something near to home?

    Re: training course

    Dear a.c tech.
    Do u mean a NATE COR course in carrier web site.
    Actually if u ask for fundamental course u can do it with any nearest company, but if u ask for advance course so u should decide the function material for the course and do it with mcquay ,carrier, train ,yourk …..etc.

    There are a few companies in the UK who offer distance learning.
    But you would still need to do the exams at a GOLA centre.
    GOLA is the term for the on line exams you will do and they operate throughout the UK, but I do not know about other parts of Europe.

    If you PM I will give you a list of distance learner providers or check this site for 6087 providers.

    Perhaps talk to the distributors in South Florida who your company buys equipment from.

    Rheem used to have a top technician program that was pretty good. They taught basic refrigeration and airflow

    If you want to learn something about solving air flow problems, and some basic air balancing you could try the national comfort institute, be advised though half the course is sales orientated, the other half shows the basics of solving air flow problems.

    The NCI, puts them on periodically all over the USA, they have upwards to a three day seminar, does not teach anything about the refrigeration side.

    The Caymans have a decent continuing education program, a couple good guys teach a two level AC course at night school there., It is a semester long though, you would have to live there, or grab the british airways flight out of Nassau everyweek
    Take the V out of HVAC and you are left with a HAC job
