Heartland Academy

The Heartland Academy strives to foster the craftsmanship of the trades while helping to build the next generation of HVAC technicians.

Our Academy Standard

At the Heartland Academy, you'll become more than a tradesman. Our students pride themselves on the craftsmanship of the trades that ultimately turn their job into a career.

Our program is designed to train aspiring HVAC technicians to build their skillset and knowledge base by providing hands-on learning experiences with a focus on safety and quality. Our courses are built to accelerate career paths by transitioning our students from trade school to truck in six months.

While attending the Heartland Academy, students have the ability to work onsite in the field with a partnered mentor to ensure they are practicing and perfecting lessons taught in the classroom each week.
