This nine month program is designed to prepare students for employment in the appliance service industry. Students will learn to diagnose and repair major and small household appliance faults through customer consultation, checking controls, reading schematic diagrams and working with hand tools. Additional theory and practices prepare students to write the BC Provincial "C" Gas Certificate. During the program students will participate in a work experience practicum with current industry technicians.
This program prepares graduates for employment in appliance service companies which may lead to employment in commercial food services, electrical, commercial refrigeration and the HVAC industry. Many experienced appliance service technicians can start their own sub-contracting and independent business.
Employment opportunities in this field may be found with department stores, factory service outlets, independent service shops and authorized service depots. Outside of appliance servicing, opportunities are available with companies who service electromechanical products. Many graduates have started their own businesses. To enhance employment, graduates may require a driver's license, and may need to be bondable.
Students who complete the Foundation are eligible for credit in Foundation (equivalent to Level 1), Level 2, and Level 3 of the Appliance Service Technician apprenticeship in-school technical training and 525 work-based hours. Upon completion of the program students will be eligible to write the Certificate of Completion (COC) and the Red Seal Inter-provincial examination. The Red Seal endorsement will be awarded upon completion of 7200 work-based training hours and is recognized in all jurisdictions across Canada.
