Why We Started Recommending SkillCat

There are a lot of paths into HVAC, including a local trade school, an apprenticeship, or a community college program. For years, we pointed people to a trade school locator. Lately I have started recommending SkillCat instead, and I wanted to explain why.

HVAC School may receive compensation for referrals to SkillCat.

I trust the quality of the training, and I feel better sending people there than to the old school locator. SkillCat is an app built for training across HVAC and other skilled trades. You work through it on your phone, on your own schedule, and go after real certifications along the way.

It is $10 a month. Some certifications cost extra, and hands-on experience still matters, so it works best alongside time in the field.

If you are deciding where to start, this is the option I would point you to first.
