Good ones are hard to come by these days.   You might be overqualified for some positions and underqualified for others.  Competition can be fierce and stressful.   But before we get to where the jobs are, you should be asking yourself some questions first.

Do you know what you’re looking for?  Choosing a career school and new career is an extremely important decision in your life.  You have to choose a career that you’ll be happy with. If you enjoy your work, it becomes a labor of love.  If you hate your work, it becomes drudgery.

To catch a job in this economy you need both skills and a good attitude.  To succeed in that job, you need to work hard.  If you enjoy your work, it’s not that hard to put your all into it.  If you can do this, you can succeed.
Choose a school that has a proven track record.  For 30 years, Bay State Tech has been training men and women with its proven “hands-on training” methods.  We know how to get you trained and ready for your new career, with no prior experience needed.  And we can get you ready to get back in the workforce in less than a year.

Now, where are the jobs?  How about a career as an HVACR technician?  A recent study by U. S. News and World Reports shows HVACR Technician as one of the Best 50 jobs of 2011.  The report states:

Employment of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration technicians is expected to increase by 86,600 jobs, or 28 percent, between 2008 and 2018, according to the Labor Department.  The glut of homes built in recent years is a boon for the industry, given that residential HVACR systems generally need replacing after 10 to 15 years.  Other drivers of job growth include increasing demand for environmentally friendly and energy-efficient heating and air conditioning systems, as homeowners and businesses strive to reduce their carbon footprint and save money on heating and cooling bills.  And as systems grow more complex, more technicians will be needed to install and service them.  Finally, many technicians are reaching retirement age, and contractors are scrambling to find workers to meet the demand.  The air conditioning and commercial refrigeration industry estimates that an additional 57,000 skilled workers are needed each year. ¹

The report goes on to say:

Median hourly wages for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration technicians were $19.76 in May 2009, which translates to about $41,100 annually, according to the Labor Department².

When you choose your new career path doesn’t it make sense to get into a career that is projected to need more skilled workers over the next few years? If you think that a career in HVACR is right for you, then you need to start getting ready now, so you can take advantage of the new opportunities that will be available to you.  No previous experience is necessary to benefit from our “Hands-on Training.)

Bay State School of Technology offers a variety of programs that lead to new careers.  In our Major Appliance/Basic Electricity course, you’ll learn about electricity and how it works; you’ll learn how to read a wiring diagram and how to use it to diagnose problems.  You will work on the real washers, dryers, dishwashers, microwave ovens and other appliances, as you learn how to repair them.
