You'll earn customer service and sales, Mental Health and First Aid, and OSHA 30 certifications as well benefit from two paid attempts at your boilers license exam.

A two-week paid job shadow for $1000 gives you real life experience and networking opportunities with local employers looking to hire PPL grads. Building Operations Technicians who graduate from this PPL training obtain starting positions averaging a wage of around $21 per hour and often include opportunities to career ladder as you gain experience and expertise.
